Pasqueflower

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

Beautiful botanical...very well done, Jane! I love the fuzziness... you captured it so well.

Artist Reply: Thank you Arlene for your praise! I just love this little flower and it does have masses of soft white hairs all over. There are loads of garden varieties but I still like this wild one better than any.
