A cornucopia of wild flowers

More on my previous post "Someone deserves a pat on the back". I took some more measured pictures today of the various flowers I will leave you to look at the 12 photos and name them. The poppies are the dominant flower they are also the tallest on the mound

  3. Fabulous. The Hunstanton Council do a similar thing on the roadside verges on the way into the town - they look stunning - such a good idea and wonderful for flying, buzzy things.
