Hi, I'm new to these forums, so I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I'm a photographer with no real experience with gardening and I took this photo yesterday. I would love to have the proper name for it. I'm sure it's not that uncommon so it should hardly be a challenge for the folks here. LOL Thanks so much! Cindi
