    I couldn’t remember what these are, but I knew you’d posted images of them before. Eventually, it occurred to me they resemble the fancy headdresses of Dutch women and… well, now I know what they are. It’s such a beautiful image, and they’re beautiful flowers. Is the gold truly gold in real life, rather than yellow? I don’t remember seeing it on any other flower, but that green, gold, and white combination is great.

      Thanks, Linda.
      It is yellow, sometimes a bit richer, approaching gold I guess,and sometimes paler. The name breeches gave me tunnel vision, so to speak, but now that you mention those headdresses they do resemble those as well.
      I posted this also last year and at that time you mentioned blue patches of sky as their resemblance.

        I remembered those blue patches once I’d recalled the plant’s name. It really is a gorgeous plant. Even better, we’re supposed to have some of those blue patches today.

        No blue patches here today. Spring snow is the forecast but there will be rain in the middle. I don’t think there will be much in my neighborhood, but maybe in North Quabbin or, if I am adventurous, the Berkshires.

    Since it is silent Sunday, I am at a loss for words. I will just admire in silence.
