WW: Purple Foxglove Flowers

Common Foxglove Photo
"Among the changing months, May stands confest the sweetest, and in fairest colors dressed."
 - James Thomson

Ogre and I stopped at Cold Stone Creamery last week, and got an unexpected treat while enjoying ice cream - these pretty purple bell-shaped flowers were in the flower box next to our picnic table.
