Although the name I knew is there, mostly it's just called April flower or Easter flower… confusing, since daffs are Easter bells… but fascinating, linguistically!Swissrosehttp://www.thelittlewashhouse.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5701097386033513768.post-79144566678996373012014-04-14T06:05:21.267+01:002014-04-14T06:05:21.267+01:00Wood anemones always make me smile - we used to se...Wood anemones always make me smile - we used to see great trailing beds of them when I was out riding in the woods with my Haflinger and years ago my friend told me the Swiss German for them is Bettseicherli, which meanl "little bed wetters"!!

There are fields of Daffs around St Ives and they contrast beautifully with the freshly turned soil and the emerging leaves of trees and hedgerow. I'm sure I'm not concentrating properly while I'm driving and oohing and aahing to myself either ;)<br />Leanne xxLeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617604296746784414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5701097386033513768.post-41053075958119511222014-04-13T20:00:46.962+01:002014-04-13T20:00:46.962+01:00They do look like wood anemones.
