thanks May. It does look similar to Buddleia, but it's a perennial flower called Gooseneck Loosestrife. It has spread over the years and now is taking up too much space on the front patio garden area, so will have to move some :)

yes, that's true, Golda, thanks for the nice comment.

WOW!! now you are teaching your flowers trix.lol

Great shot.

thanks Beverly, I wondered if anyone else would think that about it looking like a steer, as that's what I thought also : ) am glad you mentioned it.
