Are these weeds ?

 It is a preconceived notion that any flower  which is self growing anywhere is a weed whenever it is observed that is growing by itself in the wild environment .I had been plucking out these two beautiful flowers considering them weed until I discovered that they are not counted in the category of weed.

                                                                   Blue pimpernel


Blue pimpernel flower is not a weed as it is considered creeping perennial in many countries but is grown as an  Winter annual in my region where rosette like leaves with blue colored flower emerging from the leaves.

Dandelion 


                                    Dandelion flowers after wilting forms the beautiful seed pods


Dandelion is not a weed and is considered for the  anti infection treatment in the medicine world. It has been also used for the problem of indigestion in the medical science.


And a rare sight of yellow throated sparrow

This  Adenium bloomed in spite of the  the cold weather


                                                        



And a Stunning evening sky

  2. Nice pictures. Our dandelions are a little different. There is only one flower on each stem. You can eat the leaves in salad when they are young.

  3. There are plants that are unfortunately called weeds, but are not. And your dandelions are indeed different from the ones we have here, probably a different species, because there are 1000 different ones. I has wrote about this once on my nature website. the bird very nicely photographed, but also the sparrow, also a species that I have never seen myself. The sky was beautiful at your place.

  6. So often what we consider to be weeds are hardier than what we plant!

  7. I have decided that weeds are those that are growing where I don't want them to, no matter what they are :)

    All your photos are so pretty.

    A fantastic addition to 'My Corner of the World' this week! May the new year bring you great things to photograph!

  8. I love many wild flowers and let them grow, they are not weeds for me. Is that really a dandelion? I think dandelion has only one stem. I wish you health and happiness in 2021!
