There are lots of beautiful yellow flowers in spring:- primroses, cowslips, rattle, buttercups to name a few.

Orange definitely makes a statement -it’s the first of June summer is here. This bright orange beauty was blooming this morning.

The weather is close and muggy and keeps feeling like thunder , in the short episodes of bright sun this gorgeous flower was stunning.This is known as fox-and-cubs (Pilosella aurantiaca)

Grasses are doing their thing at the moment,they are flowering , producing pollen( people definitely noticing this) However we walk past these beautiful flowers everyday and don’t give them a second glance unlike the bright blooms Of buttercups oxeye daisies and their companions.

Over the next week I’m deliberately going to look closely at these shy quiet flowers and make nature table number three all about them. Here is a little taster of the beauty hiding in full sight.

I am dusting off the grasses key and attempting to identify the grasses I find this week .
