thankyou, Mary, that's a very good description,- "buttery yellow" - they have a wonderful scent too. Had been trying to buy wallflowers for sometime, and finally saw some this spring. I hope they re appear again next spring

thanks Talsi, well it's not really the right lens for closeups of flowers, but they looked so colourful from the window, so couldn't resist : )

that's a lovely comment, Mary in Kent, thankyou. I do think so often of my grandmother when repeating flower names & seeing them and reading about them. I "hear" her voice, saying the names. Am sure others experience the same.

Beautiful that just looking out the window at a plant brings back a life and important people. And this is indeed a beautiful photo Alandra. The colours and size of them gorgeous.
