These looked like dried pods at the top of a long thin stem in the Royal Botanical Gardens. I couldn’t see any sigh of a label for them.
It’s always nice seeing pasque flowers around Easter. These were in an alpines / rockery section of the Edinburgh Royal Botanical Gardens.
The tranquil surface of a large pond. A couple of mallard drakes swim vaguely in the direction where there are people standing, possibly with the hope of being fed.
More purple flowers: these are drumstick primroses.
No doubts about this flower. It’s very definitely purple, and looked at through screwed up eyes possibly resembles teeth.
Don’t go trusting to authority. The species ID label of these flowers in the Edinburgh Royal Botanical Garden clearly says Jasminum humile, a now depreciated Linnean designation of the common jasmine.
It’s quite difinitely not got yellow flowers.
