Er... let's make that the second-most gorgeous sight that greeted me on my return, after Our Lass, of course!
During the Scottish trip, I'd missed most of the Common Poppies, Papaver rhoeas, coming into flower, but there were definitely more characters on the cast list now.
Corn Cockle, Agrostemma githago |
Thorow-wax, Bupleurum rotundifolium |
Corn Marigold, Glebionis segetum, and friend |

A lovely sight indeed.
Agreed, Keith. The only downer is the fact that their flowering season is so short. Not having their genes manipulated for human aesthetics, these plants just get on with the job of seed production as soon as possible. Why hang around?
