Description:
It’s always fun to see what wildflowers show up from year to year. This is Celandine, a member of the Poppy family. When I plucked a leaf, the most vibrant saffron-hued juice bled out.
Once upon a time, the plant’s juice was thought to bleach freckles, remove warts, and cure liver ‘complaints’.

This one is lovely and would make for a beautiful postcard. :o)
I also like the commentary… very informative. I love collecting material like that.
