King's Spear (Asphodeline Lutea)

King's Spear (Asphodeline Lutea)
Taken in one of the public gardens in Southsea, Hampshire. Still in bud at the moment, but I'm hoping to get back there to take a photo of it in full bloom.

Go large for full effect. Thanks for looking.

It looks brilliant! There's enough colour in the buds to make the yellow shine and I also like the red tones in the background.

I love the narrow leaves going this way and that! They have some very interesting plants in the Southsea gardens Keith. I look forward to seeing it in full bloom. I believe they are nicely scented too. Superb shot, standing out well against the blurred background.

I hope you are well after your second jab yesterday?

The arrangement of the leaves reminds us of what inspired Art Nouveau. And now Art Nouveau is long gone but king's spear is still thriving. Well spotted and strikingly captured.
