Bellflowers

 I've been trying to make sure that early Sunday morning is a time to sketch with my daughter. This past week's subject was some violet Bellflowers from our yard.

These are pretty to look at, and have survived our neglectful care of the back yard, but I have since learned that this particular species is called the Creeping Bellflower owing to their extreme, almost weed-like persistence, and are quite invasive, easily overwhelming a garden. It's no wonder they have survived.
