Celandines


I took this picture yesterday. It was a really warm summy day and all the flowers were wide open. Celandines are one of my favourite wild flowers and I allow them to take over parts of the garden. The dark leaved one and the pale cream one are cultivated varieties but they are being squeezed out by the wild ones. I have been hoping that by some miracle of cross pollination I might get a dark leaved one with pale flowers which would make me a fortune but I don't think thats going to happen!
