    There are no such things as weeds, just plants growing in the wrong place, or so I'm told. I think this photo proves that fact without doubt. Simply beautiful, thanks for sharing.

    Nice pic, Pavel! I like the way wood sorrell will cover an area and gleem in the sun. We have blue wood sorrel here as well as the yellow. Thanks for posting.

    I thought I'm the only one who notices these guys. I took these a while ago, I just think they are so pretty.

    Sorrel wasn't that used in home-medicine to make poultices? Most all weeds have a medicinal use.
