In 2004, my daughter and I took a walking tour of Cornwall (England). We hiked over cliffs, beaches, meadows, and through woods--7 or 8 miles a day. The woods were incredible: in mid-May, we saw calla lilies, orchids, forget-me-nots, foxglove, rhododendron (and many more, growing wild, and blooming their heads off). These 1" tabs with 6mm amethyst reflect the deep woods, with purple orchids and blue forget-me-nots.
