Purple Passion Flower

John is back in the hospital,and on the way home I stopped at
an insurance company that has this beautiful vine. It was right
at sunset. I started not to post, but thought I'd tell you about
it and ask for prayers. He will be there for three days, probably,
and then go the nursing center for rehab. He has been getting weaker
and weaker and I have had trouble caring for him at home.
Thank you all for caring and for your prayers.

This is stunningly beautiful. Very nice composition, too. I sure wish we had these where I live, but you can keep your spiders. My thoughts and prayers are with you; I've a very long list this week...

I'm looking at it again and all I can say is that this is eye poppingly beautiful.

this is a beauty Petesie. I am so sorry to hear of the circumstances in your life right now, but your eye still knows how to create beauty. You have enormous strength.

My best wishes too Petesie. It is a very difficult situation I'm sure. Take some comfort from your pretty garden flowers as often as you can.

Your John is in my prayers. Here in Louisiana we call that vine "the Maypop vine" and can't wait for the fruit to ripen. Beautiful flower.

Wow, this is better than any shot I've ever taken of these and I've taken a TON.
My sympathies, also.

So very sorry to hear of John's setback, you are both in my thoughts tonight.
Glad you posted this beautiful purple passion.

What a beautiful and unusual flower.. i've never seen anything like it. Nice colors and composition.
My thoughts are with your husband and yourself.

Very pretty. The purple and green compliment each other.
