Million Bells

Million Bells by Richard-.
Warren, Connecticut. My wife brings all the outside potted plants into our basement for the winter, and now, just before she puts them out for the summer, there are lots of flowering plants leaning toward the big window in the basement. They're hungry for light. It's breezy outside and difficult to take pictures of small things; the basement turns out to be a great place for macro shots of plants. This flower is quite small, maybe one half inch across.

Note: I had the name wrong, my apologies.

Thank you all, this image was fun to make. The window was on the left so the light illuminated the inside of the flower, always a nice effect when one can arrange it.

Our flowers are blowing wildly around here, too.......so windy! Wish we had a basement.......no one here does.
Don't think I have heard of this tiny one.......love the bokeh of your basement!
