In the realm of Azura Isle, where the sea's embrace met the land, there lived a spirited soul named Violette. Her hair, a cascade of twilight hues, was the isle's whispering legend, each strand a tale of the dusk and dawn entwined.

Violette's days were spent beneath the sun, where the sky met the horizon in an endless kiss. Her bikini, the color of blooming orchids, was adorned with the golden kisses of the island's famed crocus flowers. A single hibiscus flower perched behind her ear, a vibrant contrast to her whimsical locks.

She had a charm that danced with the breeze, and eyes that spoke of a thousand uncharted waters. With a smile that could coax the shyest creature from its shell, Violette was known to all as the isle's heart, the rhythm to which the waves themselves swayed.

Today, she stood at the edge of the water, a symphony of movement, the embodiment of Azura's spirit. With every gaze into the distance, she wove a dream of sails unfurling and adventures untold, her heart a compass to the unknown.

Crocus

[flowerishness]

Colchicum autumnale (autumn crocus)

The pink petals of this beautiful autumn crocus take in the last rays of the sun. The leaves of this plant emerge in the spring but then die back, and only the flowers appear in the fall. We grew autumn crocuses in our garden for decades but an individual plant only lives for five years, and none have showed up this autumn. Luckily, I ran into this lovely specimen in a neighbor's rock garden. Now that's what I call Pinkolicious!

Be forewarned, unlike 'true' crocuses (one of which we get saffron from), the autumn crocus is deadly poisonous. Not recommended for gardeners who have kids or pets.
