There it was growing in the middle of our natural meadow, which is actually no longer such a meadow. The wild plant mixture was removed a month ago, but this is the late comer. The one that waits for the others to go, so that it has the field to itself. I was surprised to see it flowering this afternoon, not quite on its own. There was a second plant near it. And look at those buds not yet opened. This will be a one plant show.

So delicate, a wild flower meadow sounds beautiful.

It just grows wild by chance

What a lovely surprise! Wild flowers always bring joy and a reminder that there are still places where people haven’t totally altered the environment.
I always enjoy the milch cows in your opening photo, perhaps because I live in a rural area where cows – usually beef cattle – are routine and enjoyable parts of the landscape. The former, though, tend to be more like pets, with distinct and usually agreeable personalities.

Our wild flower meadow is part of our landscape and new flowers are always being discovered. Our cows are for milk. I find it a shame that they remove the horns when they are calves. I don’t often see them in the hot days of summer as the farmer only lets the out into the field during the Night when it is cooler

It seems unnecessary for milch cows, I agree, though the range cows I am more familiar with here are easily spooked and are more wild. They can be pretty dangerous to people unused to beef cattle, so will be polled.
