Wildflower Friday
Coltsfoot
Coltsfoot Asparagus-like Stalk
Coltsfoot, an Early Member of the Daisy Family
An early Spring wildflower, I see it along many roadsides and woodland edges. At first glance it may be passed off as a bunch of dandelions. If your a lawn purist its a weed. If your an native purist its invasive. If your into homeopathic remedies it a herb. If you like flowers it has beauty.

Lovely photographs!
Thank you! They were fully cooperative 🙂
Lovely! 🙂
Thank you. They were a great excuse to get outside 😦
Woops, 🙂
Their simple beauty never stops to amaze me 🙂
Must be their humility that makes them so attractive 🙂
Yes 🙂
These coltsfeet are normally our first flowers in spring. I love them, like small suns. The finnish name is leskenlehti, a widow’s leaf, and I don’t know why. Have a sunny weekend!
I took these last week about 2 hours south. Here in North East Ohio the show is just beginning and snow is in our forecast, we’ll be looking to the flowers for our sunshine!
We have about the same situation, just between winter and spring. Yesterday was snowing.
I just noted some this morning on my walk. So cheerful!
I enjoy yellow flowers, maybe its the cheer that captures me.
