  1. 🇩🇪 Vor ein paar Jahren habe ich Narzissen gezeichnet. Ich dachte, es wäre Zeit, eine weitere Blume zu zeichnen: die Kornblume.

    🇳🇱 Een paar jaar geleden heb ik eens wat narcissen getekend. Ik vond het nu tijd om eens een andere bloem proberen te tekenen: de korenbloem.

    🇬🇧 A few years ago I drew some daffodils. I thought it was time to try to draw another flower: the cornflower.

  2. Centaurea cyanus aka The purple Cornflower
    This, for me, is my favourite of all the roadside and fieldside spring flowers now in profusion - thanks to exceptionally warm days we're having right now

  3. North: PLOVER

    The bird wades shallow
    a lone #plover looks for food
    the wind blows ripples

    South: CORNFLOWER

    plant the blue #cornflower
    for all the birds and the bees
    balance of nature

  7. wind splitting seconds on this cornflower stalk last year. I did not change anything between these pictures, nor did much time pass, I just kept pressing the shutter as the wind kept moving the branches of the birch tree in whose half-shadow I was standing

  8. How different the world looks within split seconds sometimes, just from a slight breath of wind in the leaves or a flick of the wrist! Here exemplified by one of last year's corn flowers.

  9. just split seconds apart, almost the same yet completely different images, just because a leaf or three moved in the wind

  10. Day 72.
    Slept a little better last night, & the
    training plan suggested an easy run over 1’30. I thought well, I will try, if I am struggling in the end I can still walk back.
    I did not have to and finished my first 10k!
    It was not too warm and pretty windy, and in the end (around 1’10ish) pace dropped from about 8 to 9, I’m pretty happy and proud too.
    Could observe some birds, a murder of crows and quite a big raptor, probably a buzzard.
    And, besides many slugs in different states, a pair of snails having fun. -> See picture.
    I was also very lucky to spot some of my favorite flowers, cornflowers, which have become pretty rare in the great outdoors.
    (The text on the sign in picture 4 says: Help protect us. Leave them animals their peace. Stay on the paths. The buzzard is somewhere in the middle of picture 2, you can see its silhouette when you zoom in.)

  11. Centaurea Cyanus (Cornflower)

    Centaurea cyanus, commonly known by a host of names including cornflower and bachelor’s button, comes in a variety of colors, but the blue blooms are my absolute favorite.

    Cornflowers are easy to grow from seed, they are delicious to pollinators and humans, and they can be used to make a gorgeous natural dye.

    Today I spent the afternoon working in my community garden. It was freezing and windy, but also glorious; I love winter gardening. After pulling assorted root vegetables and tweezing saffron, I finished up by sowing cornflower seeds in my plot (allotment). Nature willing, they will emerge in late March and start blooming in May.

  16. In a new article, we write about how the phenomenon of #weeds acquiring #herbicide #resistance can lead to positive effects when these weeds are plants of #phytomedical importance and important in #food #technology.

    #Cornflower is such a plant, and its herbicide-resistant biotypes have much higher levels of #polyphenols, #flavonoids and free radical scavenging activities - i.e. better #health-promoting properties than herbicide-sensitive biotypes

  17. Good morning! Emily Brontë has bloomed and smells absolutely divine!! We’ve also grown some corn flowers in a box and they’ve been blooming quite well too. The little one loves blue flowers but apparently this one does nothing for her 😂 Still a nice addition!

  18. January Joy - Day 17
    "A Meadow of Red Poppies"

    Flowers you say, to brighten the grey January you say. I say: feel free to jump right into this field filled with colorful flowery joy 😄 This is a slightly different version of the poppy field that I have as my profile header.
