Photo Details
Poster: scrap-genie (see this users gallery) This is a pink version of the normally blue Willow Gentian (Gentiana asclepiadea). Text reads: Today my sister pointed out a less flamboyant but equally special flower blooming in her garden. It is a gentian. It is normally blue and called willow gentian. She has a lovely variety named “Pink Swallow”. It really isn’t as showy as giant hibiscus, but she has every reason to be pleased with this unique and pretty plant.

oh this is so cool, your sister has the most lovely garden! What a green thumb! I am so excited, because we are going to the Indiana State Fair tomorrow, and then to the Indianapolis Zoo on Thurs. and I saw they have a nice garden at the zoo! I think you did a fabulous job on the challenge Jean! Another wonderful page for your scrapbook!

Oh so pretty. I have some bulbs in the garden that are a little like the flower but with different leaves. Wonderful page.

Love the varying shades of purple in this less flamboyant flower...like the blank journaling paper layered behind the one used for your journaling!
