Macro Monday ~ Frilly

 

 I have no idea what this plant is called. (Anyone else know?) They caught my eye while we were walking around Santa Fe last week and I thought they were so pretty.

They look like they might be Coleus. A little hard to tell from the close up :0) Very pretty.

oh, pretty! I used to have a lot of them, Coleus, easy to grow and come in all sorts of colors. Most of my flower gardens have turned to weeds since I have Gilly and Pokey to play with, no time for flowers!
Great pictures!!!
