My Platycodon

My Balloon flowers are in full bloom and the bees are in their glory!

I have both white and purple AND they've crossed over the years to give me some interesting and unique color combinations.  Really, no two are the same.  I've seen pink balloon flowers on the Google machine too, which would be a nice color to add to my garden one day.

Here is how they got their name -


Here's one opening but not quite there yet -


Tada, fully open and ready for "beesness" - 


Here are some pics of the random and cool color combinations - 





Some folks, my kids when younger, liked to "pop" these flowers, which made the gardener very upset...
