The seeds of honesty...
Not a quote from the Old Testament...but one of the few striking sights in the garden on a sustained dull, cold, rainy day. I love the brash purple of Honesty flowers when they first open in the spring, then the flattened seed pods start forming with an unbelievably intense mixture of fresh green and purple, then gradually turn into multiple shades of grey-brown, ending in late summer as delicate translucent discs from which the seeds eventually break free. Every garden should have some!
