I found these blooming by my favorite lake yesterday. If I'm not mistaken , I think they are Purple Pickerelweeds. If I am wrong, please tell me so.

Foofie Friday ( A day late ).

You even caught a bee on one of them Paul! Beautiful capture and beautiful flowers! I have no idea myself what kind they are, but I do like them very much!

I thought they were grape snow cones, but my eyes and monitor don't work good together Opie. They do work good enough to know this is a beautiful photo. Nice Foofy Friday Foto.

Enjoy your Memorial Day Weekend.

If they are a weed, they probably don't smell as good as they look. Excellent close up of the foofyweeds, Paul.
