Chelone obliqua

Finally flowering!

#wildlifewednesday can you spot the bee emerging from the flower? They disappear right inside then squeeze back out

Bottoms up 😂

Our turtlehead has struggled with the dry conditions this year but is finally flowering

Hopefully it will improve when the rain eventually arrives 🌸🤔

Love this rather strange looking plant

Looks like it’s about to throw up 🤮

Morning! Off to Newby Hall for the day, hope it stays fine

Have a lovely day 😄😄

So pleased I finally found this plant. So pretty

Beautiful. Such "meaty" flowers

Very happy with this pretty plant. It has settled in nicely

Wow, I don't think I've seen that one before! Did you grow it from seed?

No I bought it from a garden centre. Been on my wish list for a long time, so couldn't resist when I saw it last month. Just starting to flower now @juffertje-in-het-groen

Ah I see. Nice 👍looks good 😁

Morning Joan, it's lovely. Have a great day 😀😀😀

Morning Jane, hope you have a great day despite your gammy leg😀 @pelly

Thanks Joan, it's feeling much better now but that may be the painkillers. 😂😃😄

Morning Joan @joanboston Gorgeous not seen this one before 😍. Hope you have a Great day Joan 😚

I've only seen it gardening books Suzie so grabbed it when I saw it! (Any excuse!) @jadojado29

One of my favourites. It is a trouble free plant which I like!
