Coltsfoot. Tussilago farfara

Coltsfoot. Tussilago farfara
Today's Sunday Challenge is: Yellow

The common name comes from the leaf's supposed resemblance to a colt's foot. The leaves of coltsfoot appear after the flowers have set seed. The long stems bear scale-leaves that can be seen more clearly in the PiP. Coltsfoot has been used in herbal medicine and the leaves have been used in traditional Austrian medicine internally (as tea or syrup) or externally (directly applied) for treatment of disorders of the respiratory tract, skin, locomotor system, viral infections, flu, colds, fever, rheumatism and gout.

They are a sight for sore eyes! As kids we used to pick the flowers, I guess our mother was less than enamoured;-)

Two beautiful images Amelia.................I especially like your clever use of a narrow depth of field in the main image, to make just the one flower stand out in perfect detail.
