Extravaganza!

This is a late afternoon color, texture, smell extravaganza, but after a long day in the garden, I don't seem to have the energy to turn it into a good photograph. The beauties are blue catnip, lavender-flowered nigella, and an ornamental honeysuckle. Bronze fennel is in this, too, and I can't describe the mix of the catnip and fennel fragrances. Suffice it to say: I do wish I could convey all this, because it is intoxicating.
