Common Butterbur Petasites hybridus IMG_5007

Common Butterbur (Petasites hybridus) seems to be in a hurry to get its flowers up, no matter if it is snowing every now and then. I saw these early flower buds in Vallila, Helsinki

I love that color...makes me think of Victorian prints. Very pretty and nice capture
