It has always seemed to me that the red Monarda would have felt right at home as a character in Alice in Wonderland.
"There is a place. Like no place on earth. A land full of wonder, mystery, and danger! Some say to survive it: You need to be as mad as a hatter. Which luckily I am."
* From the movie: Alice in Wonderland
Rosemary, monarda is pretty flower, you're right, its red petals seem to be the hair of Hatter!
ReplyDeleteIt's a crazy looking flower and I love it! Do you have them where you live Nadezda?
DeleteGorgeous flower & photos Rosemary!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tammy, this flower has such a vibrant colour that I have a hard time finding the correct light to photograph it in.
DeleteI would have never made that connection, but you are absolutely correct. Cool flower to go with a cool character:)
ReplyDeleteThey act kind of crazy in the garden, kind of "look at me", definitely can't be described as demure :)
Deletewow that is some flower!
