Blue Flower

I thought this blue flower very pretty although I do not know the name of it however on closer inspection I noticed the little red stalks that looked like mushrooms on it.  You will see them better on the second image. 




 Photographed in David's Garden.

    Hi Margaret, it's beautiful and looks very similar to the Tibouchina we have growing in our garden in SE Gippsland :D)

    Yes, they are the stamens. It looks like a spider in the center, doesn't it? This is a gorgeous blue flower!

    It's a tibochina. We had one in our yard once and I loved taking photos of it.
