This little corner also houses sorrel,scarlet pimpernel a bit later, and other wild flowers some people refer to as weeds.
Interestingly a lot of the flowers in my wildflower book also appear in my weed book. It's largely about location and density and whether it's a pest to crops. It's not about some moral failing on the part of the plant, though some folks talk as if it were.
Anyway I treasure them all.
I noticed them as I was rolling up the daffodil foliage. I just sort of take it in handfuls, roll them back and hide them under the ground cover. That way they decay naturally, out of sight, and you don't see them yellowing and dying off. But they do preserve the nutrition for next year's flowers.
I have a few square feet of land, and I talk as if it was the back forty.
