I believe that is a lupine. It's a biannual, which means it blooms every other year. They often grow wild along the roadside here in northern New England. There is a fantastic children's book called Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney that has such beautiful illustrations. It is worth reading even if you don't have children.
Love the perspective of your shot against the blue sky. I believe it may be the Lupine. Go take a look here, http://wiseacre-gardens.com/plants/perennial/lupine.html
It is lupine, indeed. The flowers of lupine are most commonly blue, pink, white and purple, and less often yellow shades. I don't know about every other year, but I do know they don't bloom the first year. They need great drainage! Pretty photo.
Hi There - Your flower is definately a Lupin - we have several colours of them in early summer - such a lovely flower and they multiply too, if they like the growing conditions. Nice Photo - Lilly of Atlantic Canada http://saucykodz.blogspot.com

ReplyDeleteWe're quite enjoying the summer weather here, too!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I can't identify the flower.
What a lovely picture. I thought it might have been a lupin, but I think I am wrong!
ReplyDeleteI don't know either but there's some at the very back of our yard. Just a wild flower I guess.
ReplyDeleteI've seen that before but I don't know what it's called.
ReplyDeleteMy sky is here
Such a treat to look up in the sky with such gorgeous view! Looks like a lopine.
