Wonderful wildflowers

7-8 May 2014

Now we just had to wait, to give the lime mortar a chance to go off before we walked on it.  So Dave did more of the external wall plaster and I pottered around helping.  And took the time to look at some of the new flowers that have sprung up this year.

 Wild marigolds

 Not a clue - strange curly edges, but very pretty

 After extensive research, found out this is called Love in a Mist and it is the most amazing flower - or so we thought, until we saw the seed pods - even more amazing - they're huge, the size of very large grapes

And we are in the middle of exuberant cereals - these are either wheat or barley, with wild oats just visible behind.  This is on the path to our front door, we have to scythe our way in.
