Trollius

A sad day when we said farewell to a good and true man. He loved life and was immensely proud of his beautiful wife and daughter. Bittersweet to hear his eulogies and to meet so many old and dear friends at the Wake following the church ceremony. His strength, kindness and constancy were remembered and much appreciated by us.
Returned home after a long car journey to a rain soaked garden but the sun came out this evening and lit up this Trollius. It's at the front of the hot border and is a Ranunculus - which makes it essentially a posh buttercup.
