Honeysuckle Today.
Probably a garden escpe, but found on a hedgerow in the middle of nowhere.
Nice to have something colourful at this time of year.

Re: Flower of the day
Not really a flower but found it interesting to find lots of berries on Asparagus in the sand dunes

Two nice ones today, Autumn and Bieberstein's crocus growing next to each other. Rather surprised at how large they both were!
