Lesser Celandine - Ficaria verna - a photo on Flickriver

            Can also be known as Pilewort and is one of the first buttercups to flower in early spring from March to April and depending on the climate can even be seen flowering as early as January. This low flowering plant will brighten up and light up any woodland floor. When seen in most of our gardens this small low-growing perennial tends to be treated as a weed and falls into that old saying... A weed is a flower that flowers in the wrong place.
