Echium candicans - backlit spent seedhead

Echium candicans - backlit spent seedhead

Photo by Carolyn Collins

The common name of this Echium is "Pride of Madeira". The various shades of blue/purple brighten seaside areas in early summer. The taller varieties are especially spectacular.

I live near the beach which is perfect for enjoying sunrises and sunsets. Found this passion 10 years ago, in my mid 60s, so have such a lot of catching up to do and so little time to do it.
