A non-blogger who regularly reads my blog sent me these beautiful flowers last BLUE MONDAY. Look at the BLUE! I never knew that God made such pretty BLUE blooms. Can anyone identify them for me?
The note says, "Sally, Happy Blue Monday! Love, Jane"

How very sweet. You have a precious friend. Could the flower be a delphenium? Sp? I can't really tell.

This is so sweet of her Sally. To receive flowers from someone you haven't met. A very nice gesture - and the flowers are beautiful!
Happy Blue! Monday!

Very pretty blue flowers! Beautiful gift! But I have no idea what they are either!
Hi Sally.
Those flowers are really beautiful and to get it as a surprise from someone who you havent met is another way of appreciating each other. Happy blue monday.
Hi Sally. What a pretty bouquet. I don't know what the flowers are either, but you must have smiled all day :-))
Hi Sally, your flowers are so pretty. I love that vibrant blue. Are those Delphinium? I enlarged the picture and I can't really tell but I have some growing in my yard, they come in dark blue, light blue, white, purple, etc. I think that's what they are but I am not sure. They have a white center just like mine.
They are very pretty, perfect for blue monday!

Hi Sally! What a sweet gesture. I bet those are Delphiniums. I would have them growing in my garden this summer, but the bunnies helped themselves to them. Happy Blue Monday! ~ Robyn
How thoughtful, and how pretty. I'm not sure what they are, either. I was thinking lupine, but looked them up and they don't look like most of the pictures of it.
What a sweet surprise and beautiful blue flowers!
Happy Blue Monday!
Robin
How Sweet! I have blue flowers today, too!
Oh, that's so sweet!
Wishing you a great week :)!
What a nice gesture! I am no help in identifying those blue flowers, but it looks like a couple of other bloggers are agreeing on delph---something or other. Anyway, I love the blue color on those flowers.
Happy Blue Monday!
Hello Sally...
Ohhh...what a lovely floral bouquet! Your friend is so sweet! The blue flowers are really a beautiful shade of blue...I would say that they are Delphiniums (but not sure). Thank you for sharing your sweet gift with us and for hosting Blue Monday!
Have a marvelous Monday, my friend!
Chari

Thanks for posting...

Hi Sally
What a lovely blue flower. So sweet of your friend :-)
Have a nice day & happy Blue Monday

Flowers from friends...always leaves a sweet fragrance in the air. At first they kinda looked like bluebonnets but up close...I'm not sure what they are. Enjoy!
My first thought was delphinium but I am not sure. They are not exactly like the ones I have seen.
Beautiful, though. What a thoughtful thing for a friend to do.

Hello Sally, happy blue monday. What a beautful bouquet of flowers. How sweet of your friend to send them to you. The blue flower is called a blue delphinium, the green is button mums, white roses and the rose color is alstramia (spelled wrong). Have a great week!
Bless you, Shirl

So pretty, but I am not good identifying them.
Have a good day.

What a beautiful bucket of flowers!
Happy blue monday and have a great week.
Now that's a meme taking on a life of its own! Niiiice.
Good morning Sally, How sweet to receive such lovely flowers. Isn't it wonderful how blogging can bring so many rewards into our lives?
Have a happy Blue Monday.
Hugs...Jeanne
Sally, I am not a flower expert and if I ever knew their names, I forget them.
Whatever their names, they are beautiful and what a wonderful surprise.
Happy Blue Monday,
Barbara
What a sweet friend you have Sally. Your flowers are absolutely beautiful! Happy Blue Monday ♥
Some people have a special way about them whether you know them personally or not. Sally, no doubt you are one of those people. It is obvious your blogging friends care and have a lot of respect for you. Your friend, Jane, showed hers by treating you with those lovely flowers.
Pretty flowers.
Hi Sally I'll post next time:).
Have a great week.
I love getting flowers. I bet that just made you smile and smile and smile! :)

Hi Sal
Delphiniums are my favorite. How kind! What an awesome color blue they are. I'm joing in today. Thanks for hosting blue Monday.
Hugs, Rhondi
Hi Sally :) That was very nice of your friend to send you the beautiful flowers...Happy Blue Monday ♥
This is beautiful, Sally. I don't know what it is, I just know it's pretty!
I just realized there is a lot of blue in my Dog n Suds post, so added it here. Thanks so much!!
Hi Sally,
You've been given wonderful Delphiniums!!
Love having them in the garden... they are delicate flowers which require much attention as they tend to be broken by wind... but they are just terrific both in the beds and indoor! I definitely recommend them.
I shared something vintage this week...
Happy Blue Monday!
Monica.
Beautiful! Don't you just love surprises---and friends like Jane?
I too think they might be delphiniums, which I love. But I have never been able to grow them.
Surprises are awesome! Rejoicing with you over this beautiful blue surprise!
I love getting flowers...they make my day! Your flowers are very pretty.
Pretty flowers. Could the blue be delphinium? Sally
Lovely flowers! Have a great day!
Sally, whart apretty bouquet of flowers.
It seems that the blue flowers look like "Delpheniums"...
My Blue Monday have something to eat...
