Lovely sunshine flowers.
Yeap, even when the sun don’t shine!
So cheerful! I love yellow, especially with compliments of white flowers and silver foliage.
There was a flower festival in Ely cathedral a few years ago with a very memorable display along those lines. So fresh and bright.
These are guaranteed to put smiles on our faces.
Yes definitely, although I’ll be frowning at the dandelions later!
Yellow! Yellow post! I love it and your flowers and photos are lovely.
Thanks for a nice wake up!
You are welcome!
Full of spring cheer, and lovely to see that you included equally beautiful images of lowly dandelions and celandines too. Yellow always seem to be a bee magnet …..
I normally avoid yellow in my plans, but I’ve no idea why when I like so many individual plants that are yellow. I do love to see carpets of dandelions on the verges at this time of year.
I think if a plant hunter discovered the dandelion with its herbal qualities in both the leaves and roots, its ability to survive drought, grow in any conditions, while providing a good source of nectar and pollen for the bees, it would sell like hot cakes!
Seedaholic.com do sell Taraxacum officinale seeds and Chiltern seeds do a red leaved version!
Yesterday a saw for sale in a nursery a pretty pink Taraxacum.
