Look familiar?

Part of this photo is this week's Image of the Week (in the sidebar to the right). Can you tell I've run out of fresh pictures again? I don't know what wildflower this is, but it's blooming all around right now.

If anyone knows what these are, I'd appreciate a comment.

We had some thunder and lightning over night, but no rain. The storm moved by us to the west and north. Bert sauntered in around 02h30 this morning, about the same time that the storm was moving off. And once again, thankfully, no mouse.

  1. To me it looks like a variety of Colchicum, colchique in French? It is hard to single out one flower to make sure.

    1. According to this website in French, it could also be a Sternbergia.

      Good luck with that.

  2. Wow. At first glance I thought you had a field of daffodils. Obviously not.

  3. You can download an app for free that identifies plants. It's so easy to use!

    3. Hi com
      There's a few out there. Easiest is flora incognito. There's also plantsnap.
      No I don't recognise the plant. Sorry.

    4. Thank you, Christina, I’ll try those on rare plants or flowers I’m sure of to see how accurate they are.

  4. chm, I don't think they're sternbergies by the looks of those on the web site.

    mitch, nope!

    christina, I have one that I use, although in this case it was of no help.

  5. I think I found it! Linaire commune (linaria vulgaris). Check it out!

    1. In your photo, the flowers looked closer to the ground because of the angle and several flowers looked like one. Now that you identified it, I went back to your photo and could recognise the butter-and-egg that I knew. LOL!
