The colours in spring are white and yellow. Now the season is summer and there are still white and yellow flowers - white elderflowers and yellow buttercups, for example. (Our neighbour doesn't like buttercups - her mare has an allergy - hayfever.) But now there are new colours. We are seeing many varieties of red and purple. The hedges are full of foxgloves, campions (soldiers or spider plants), and valerians (pride of Fowey). Here and there we see a fluffy purple flower of the thistle among prickly leaves. I saw some tiny blue flowers in a field, but I don't know their name. They are low on the ground, but this hog weed is very tall.
