In another thread I asked you what plant has these flowers (which I find really beautiful!)...
... and gave you these leaves as a second hint ...
... and no one guessed the plant.
It is tobacco.
Yes, in bicycle distance here in the North of Germany, where you expect potatoes, wheat, rye, barley or corn to grow in the fields, there is this one big exception: a tobacco field:
And to get the flower photo, I had to stretch my arms high above my head and let the camera do the rest - short as I am, I did not reach up that high "naturally" .
Who would have thought that tobacco has such lovely flowers, eh?
