Topsmead is a gem of a park in Litchfield, Connecticut. I have been there many times, but it is always new and always gorgeous. Blue is a very good thing there.

    This picture of the beautiful blue delphiniums makes me realize how different of a gardening zone we live in. I love these beautiful flowers and our heat and humidity here kills them every time I try to grow them. Sigh~~ You just can't get that blue in the garden without them. ~~sigh
