Yellow

[poliphilo]

 The garden is full of yellow right now. Daffodils, but also gorse. The gorse is spectacular.....

And hardy. The soil is poor; dig down and you soon hit of layer of grot from whatever was here before the houses went up. But the gorse doesn't mind. It thrives. Just plant it and leave it alone and let it do it's own wild thing.

We also have gorse and it's in full flower!

Yay!

I used to live near Goss Moor (in mid-Cornwall) which has plenty of gorse, or at least did back then. I wondered if there was some connection in the moor's name but apparently not.

I was around gorse in my childhood and it's one of the plants that makes me especially happy.
