An evening walk from Shelburne to Buckland along, you guessed it, the Bridge of Flowers:
Man, these folks put a ton of forethought into this local gem, as well as plenty of good ol’ elbow grease.
A Crocosmia, common name “Lucifer:”
An Eryngium, or Sea Holly, cultivar “Blue Saphire:”

Bummer.

At the risk of boring you all, here are a couple more from the Shelburne Falls Bridge of Flowers.
A Scarlet Ruby begonia:
…and a blossom of Crocosmia, here of the cultivar Lucifer:
…both boldly rubilicious.
