This flower looks incredibly beautiful, just like an ornamental flower that is lovingly cared for in front of a house. However, in my grandmother's village, we can easily find this flower growing wild along the roadside. It is purple in color and has the distinctive shape of a flower from the legume family, with flower buds arranged closely together along a stalk covered in fine, soft hairs.
Previously, I also shared another flower of this same kind that was white, and it turns out that this flower also comes in purple. It is relatively large in size, so I don't need the help of a macro lens to capture all its details.

I really like its unique shape, and I have already planned to cultivate this flower in front of my house. However, I don't know whether it will be able to grow well in the weather conditions of my area. Meanwhile, my grandmother's village has a cool climate because it is located in the highlands of Central Aceh.

Okay everyone, now I will share some pictures of these wildflowers here.
