Sundrops for Mellow Yellow Monday

These beautiful yellow Sundrops are just beginning to open in my garden, They add an optimistic note which helps counter act the dullness of the many rainy days we have had recently and the wet forecast for the remainder of the week remains rather dismal as well.These Sun Drops remind me of giant buttercups.I will enjoy their sunshiny colour all week.


To view a wonderful variety of yellow-themed photos from other bloggers around the world, just click on the link below.

My daughter-in-law gave me some Sundrops, and they look so beautiful where I planted them. This must be a good year. I see them everywhere.
