No mow May 4

The lesser celandine or pilewort. I have always known these as celandines but not heard of pilewort before.
They are beautiful, I have never seen them before. You're finding and capturing some lovely little flowers.

Perhaps they had a medicinal role in olden times???

nice one :)

I am just impressed with your knowledge of so many wildflowers! That, and your ability to capture them so well in pictures would work perfectly in a botanical book

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Pilewort - the clue is in the word and Google has confirmed it.

Another beauty and, it seems a huge relief for some in the olden days then.

Beautiful capture. I always find these so difficult to do justice to, but you’ve managed it perfectly.

A very pretty flower.

Pretty little flowers!

hello girls. So pretty
May 4th, 2023  
Very pretty!

I like the shiny leaves, much like what we call a buttercup, also a wildflower.

I love the comp and the colors. Beautiful capture. Somehow celandine sounds a lot nicer than pilewort.
May 5th, 2023  
These are smiles on stalks, love 'em

@randystreat yes very similar to a buttercup. I will try and capture one or two later in the month.
May 5th, 2023  
They are so pretty!

Lovely! I only know them from Cicely Mary Barker, haha.

Before the hawthorn leaves unfold,
Or buttercups put forth their gold,
By every sunny footpath shine
The stars of Lesser Celandine.
