Almost Summer - Zebrina Hollyhock & Clematis Swirl after the Bloom

L

Late last sumer I went to a Flea Market in Lexington, NC.  The image on the left is a photo of the Zebrina Hollyhock I bought there.  It is a perenniall and I was so happy that it came back.  It and has had a lot of blooms for at least 3 weeks. This hollyhock does not get as tall as the ones you see in cottage gardens.  The image on the right is the whirl you see after the clematis has bloomed.  I love the swirly pattern and texture.  Neither of these images had any editing.  Taken with iPhone 6S.
