Small Delights. Lawn Daisy, Bellis perennis, Myosotis ramosissima, Early Forget-me-not, and Redstem Filaree, Erodium circutarium, Our Lawn, Venlo, The Netherlands
In the chilly wind and under a very bleak sun a carpet of small wildflowers decorate Our Lawn. Here are: Lawn Daisy, Bellis perennis; Early Forget-me-not, Myosotis ramosissima; Erodium circutarium, Redstem Filaree.
A query: I didn't know that Lawn Daisy also goes by the name 'Bairnwort'. It's obvious, of course, what that word means. But I couldn't find an etymology in the online OED. Can anyone 'Out There' enlighten me? E.g.: when it was first used. Thanks.
