Newent wild daffodils

Back "home" housesitting for M&A so popped out one of our favourite dog walking spots. The advantage was i got to take a photo or the newent daf' in Dymock Woods. The blankets of yellow have to be seen to be believed.

This is from Glis. wildlife trust web site if you want to know more about them.
" The delicate wild daffodil was once a common sight throughout Gloucestershire and is our county flower. Today the wild daffodil is mainly found in a part of the county called the ‘golden triangle’ due to its fields and verges of native wild daffodils. The Golden Triangle is near Newent and draws hundreds of visitors every year from all over the country.

The Corona which is the trumpet like part of the flower, has parallel sides and fans out right at the tip.

The leaves are flat and roughly 5 to 15mm wide, and usually 30cm long they have a bluish, grey colouring.

Tepals are the paler outside petals and these are usually the same length as the bright yellow trumpet like part of the flower. Tepals are usually 18 to 40mm long and twisted at the base."
