Very nice macro with extension tubes. What brand extension tubes did you use?

Did you know that not only is there the blue variety that you have captured, but it also comes in a strong pink color.
If this is growing in your yard, be careful. As it will slowly take over substantial sections of your garden, if the growing conditions are good.
My mother had both varieties growing in separate small plots, but she decided to transplant some of the blue variety into an enriched soil, and it went from a small 6" diameter clumps to over 3' in diameter down a 10' length of the garden in just 3 seasons, and virtually hung over most of the paved path from the driveway to the back yard.
