Throughout the month of July, Becky (Queen of the Squares) is feeling blue. Ideal for me to showcase the most dominant colour of Cornwall in all its guises.

Cornwall in Colours 
Very nice, Jude. Cornishly tropical! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete. x
Indeed!
That’s what I thought too, Pete. Palms immediately gives it a tropical feeling.
Cornwall was the first place I ever saw a palm tree, Dina. 🙂
That brush bush is enormous! 🙂
Like millions of blue candles!
Lilac wine, so deep and heady! Beautiful!
You just keep finding beautiful blues! 🙂
Not difficult living in Cornwall! Although the blue sky is avoiding us today!
Well, yes, true! 🙂
I have never seen such a bush, not even in California.
Ah, but does it come from California? I need to check 😊
What a delightful sight!
Very tropical looking 🙂
never heard of this before, it is lovely. Might need to look out for one but there again suspect Cornwall is one of the few places it will grow here.
Not at all. I used to see one in Doncaster and that’s when we regularly had snowy winters, also they grow them at Powys castle. Maybe not as big as this one, but large shrub/small tree size.

There doesn’t seem to be as many ceanothus around as there used to be?
Maybe they have fallen out of favour? Everyone seems to want an Amelanchier these days.
I’d have one if I had space 🙂
