I dunno the name of this plant, but as a little kid, I went out one sunny morning and thought I'd pick of few of them for my mom. The stems are sort of rough and very fibrous and tough. I had to use my teeth to break them off. Somehow, I inhaled and choked. We ended up at the doctor's office where he gingerly reached down my throat and swabbed out a piece of one of the little leaves.
I didn't use my teeth to pick wildflowers any more.
I still like the flowers and your photos are very nice.

@avajsouth - Thanks, Ava. This is lavender, and these are the seed pods.
I would just like to let you know that you have gotten me hooked on blackberry izze & it is not cheap!
Mmm I love the smell of lavender.
If we grew that I'd be putting it all over the house. The smell is wonderful.
