Description
A pretty painted lavender garden with a yellow green bokeh.
Lavandula (common name lavender) is a genus of 39 known species of flowering plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae. It is native to the Old World and is found from Cape Verde and the Canary Islands, Europe across to northern and eastern Africa, the Mediterranean, southwest Asia to southeast India. Many members of the genus are cultivated extensively in temperate climates as ornamental plants for garden and landscape use, for use as culinary herbs, and also commercially for the extraction of essential oils. The most widely cultivated species, Lavandula angustifolia, is often referred to as lavender, and there is a color named for the shade of the flowers of this species.

Thanks Maria.... now worries. I suppose they may look a bit like irises, especially the one on the left. Lol xx

Well, Silly Me, I saw the color and shape and thought this was a field of Irises with the added new blooms ready to bursts forth... Jokes on me for not reading the title and the description (lol).. All my best, Maria

I absolutely love this painting, Kaye I am a native Tennessean, and this is the state flower. I grew up with gardens filled with these beautiful blooms. This is the best i have seen. Brava. F/L
