This lovely little chalkland flower is now very rare in the UK. It is also known as the Easter Flower as it opens in April/May. It's name is derived from the Greek word 'Paschal' meaning the Passover or Easter time.
Artist Reply: Thank you Analua for your kind comments about my new drawings. The pasqueflower was particularly good to do as I just love the beautiful purple colour and the wonderfully soft downy hairs that cover the stem and leaves. Thanks again Jane
