Ruby Tuesday

Looking through the photo archive, I was amazed at how much red there is in so many pictures.  Sometimes, it's just a flash but others are almost completely red.  Here's one that we took last fall at a local nursery...



Here's the information just in case you want one for your own garden.

    I remember that there was 2 colour introductions last year but I never did see them in real life. I must say that this tempted me quite a bit. Maybe this year I'll get one of these.

    What a lovely picture! But here's what's so funny! It looks just like the giant flower of lights that I posted today!! Mine with lights and yours is the real thing. That's so cool. Is an echinacia the same as a coneflower? This one is lovely, I might try to get some for our little flower bed. They sure could have picked out a prettier name then "Tomato Soup"!!Wonder who named it? Probably someone who loved tomato soup for lunch.

    I love that rose name. That is exactly what tomato soup looks like. Great color and perfect name.

    That is a beautiful flower and you took such a lovely photograph of it. I have never heard of them before, thanks for letting us know what it is called.
    Have a nice week.

    Beautiful flower, and thanks for including the info, cos otherwise I wouldn't have recognised it. I take a tincture of this any tiem a cold is coming on, and it's better than any antibiotic.

    Very pretty! Up to now, I'd only seen the lavender/purple variety.
