Nigella or Love-In-A-Mist

Nigella or Love In A Mist - 18 & 20

Nigella papillosa (love-in-a-mist, ragged lady) is an annual garden flowering plant, belonging to the buttercup family Ranunculaceae. It is native to southern Europe, north Africa and southwest Asia, where it is found on neglected, damp patches of land. The plant's common name comes from the flower being nestled in a ring of multifid, lacy bracts. It is also sometimes called devil-in-the-bush. This easily grown plant has been a familiar subject in English cottage gardens since Elizabethan times, admired for its ferny foliage, spiky flowers and bulbous seed-heads.

I took this photo in a green house, since these beautiful orchids don't grow in the wild in Vermont. It was definitely the most interesting and unusually shaped flower there. I hope this mug will bring much joy for years to come.
