So, that's a corn flower! I know the name from the crayon box (smile), but I've never seen one. Great shots. :-)

Thanks, 2sweetnsaxy
I think the name makes no sense in English, because the flower doesn't grow in corn fields. It grows in wheat fields and that's what it means in German "wheat flower"
I haven't seen them in Germany for years, but here they are quite in abundance

Nice wild flowers !That yellow could be Field Mustard but I'm not sure. But I have seen that flower here by the fields too. Summer makes everything bloom. there is so many wild flowers now although it has been cold yet

Thanks, Nukke, but nope, Field mustard is what we call "Raps" / "Rape field". The blossoms are different too.

Very unusual looking flowers. The bottom one looks like a wild flower to me!

Thanks, Anne Fannie.
Just found out with some help what the bottom one is
They are both pretty common here in Europe

Beautiful flowers! I have never seen either before and I have only heard of cornflowers!

nur mal schnell.... bevor ich wieder nachhause an meinen katastrophenrechner verschwinde.
ich kann deinen blog von dem teil aus nämlich nicht mehr besuchen. mein pc spinnt mal wieder ausgiebig aber ich arbeit dran.... heute, morgen und in 100 jahren bestimmt auch noch

I love cornflowers. You don't see them much anymore.

Wolfsmilchgewächse gibts hier noch genug, die Kornblumen aber werden immer seltener, dabei sind sie echt schön.

Nicole, I didn't realize that my website would be displayed. I see it now. I'm so sorry, but can you delete the above post? I've had problems with spam, and I don't want to have to enable comment moderation.

In the mean time, this is a lovely post, and I love the blue flower the best. Lovely photographs!

Thanks for your help.

Happy Blue Monday...

The cornflower is one of my favorite... so delicate and the little petals are small flowers in themselves. Lovely.

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Happy Blue Monday.

Lovely! Happy Blue Monday.

Blessings,

Beautiful! Happy Blue Monday ~ Susan

Lovely. Great shots. Nice post.

Lovely shots, Nicole.

What beautiful pictures. Thank you for sharing them with us. Have a wonderful day.

Corn flower blue and Periwinkle blue are my favorite shades of blue, except of course for sky blue, robin's egg blue, blue suede shoes blue bird blue, house of blues, blue eyes crying in the rain,, and that blue photo you posted yesterday!

Beautiful flowers. I've never seen one's like those before. Thanks for sharing.

So pretty! I love seeing that we have many of the same flowers in different parts of the world!

Ach, Kornblumen; die sieht man kaum noch. Dabei sind sie so schön ...

Your Corn Flower we call Bachelor Buttons, and I have never seen Leafy Spurge. That is a very interesting plant.

Love the color on Both but the Yellow is my fave lots of detail! Awesome Nicole.

The flowers are so beautiful, making me think of a wonderful Spring day on a yucky rainy day thanks, happy blue monday
