I spotted this flower pots on display and as a decoration on by the outdoor wash basins at the Halal Restaurant Where we stopped for lunch by the Songkla Central mosques which is located just 5 kilometres from the city of Hatyai.

This lovely lavender flower is no longer available in my flower garden at home.

All died out last year.

When the rainy season came back only the cat whiskers hardy plants shoots out tender leaves, the rest were gone save some tardy mint leave in the hanging pot.

I wanted to ask if we could stop by the plant nursery just outside of Pattani to look for this flower but I really feel like it would be too imposing.

mmm... would it be too much if I even thought about going back just for a pot of this flower?

I miss it.
