Poor Mrs Nesbitt has electrical problems, so
ABC Wednesday
is starting a bit early this week!
Anyway, we've reached the letter
V
V
is for
Violets
and
Vetch
I took this photo earlier this year.
A clump of Dog Violets grows in a stone wall along the lane where I do most of my dog-walking.

This yellow Vetch grows further up the same lane.
I'm not positive about it's name, but I think it may be Birdsfoot Trefoil.

This is probably Tufted Vetch. It likes to grow and climb up any supporting plant or fence.

Mrs Nesbitt,
and enjoy!

Petunia's ABC
Very beautiful!!
Fun V flowers! I love flowers and appreciate finding out their names...
Every Wednesday I learn new words! Vetch is one of them! Good pics.
Very vetching photos.
Ah, some lovely floral plants for today's letter V. Come on by and see where I'm taking everyone this week. :D
Violets are my favorite. I am a softie when it comes to purple flowers... love 'em!
Lovely flowers! I have one too. Have a nice wednesday.
Pretty :-)
Beautiful violets - but I've never heard of vetch!
I find your post fascinating. We have vetch all over too — but none is yellow! What a pretty variation. Ours is purple, blue, white and sometimes all three. It just began blooming.
You have stayed in the garden, I have stayed on the mountain. I am ready for V, W, and X as I will be gone most of the time in between--but my V will post around midnight my time.
Perfect choices for the letter V. I hadn't thought of those either.
Well done.
I love violets & their delicate fragrance, but didn't see any wild ones this Spring.
Bought my-self a bunch of Devon Violets, but they weren't the same.
I hadn't realised you had spotted Vetch - good choice.
I too what the very pretty yellow stuff was on see growing ceratin parts here. Now I know. Lovely blossoms, and a lesson for me learned. One more plant I can now proudly identify. Excellent work.
I love to see the first violets of Spring. I get excited and wnat to tell people I pass, 'Look!' But I try to control myself!!
Is that vetch? Yes, I see a lot of that.
Very good choice for "V"-Wednesday!
Over at San Francisco Bay Daily Photo, we have Visions of Hell!

I never knew what vetch was. I learn something new everyday :) Great V post!
I forgot thanking ou about Tanya Huff's work. I don't know her stries, but now I'm curious! ;)

Regarding your comment at "Louis's" Visions of Hell, neither "Louis" nor Mme. la Vache would want to see those horrid panels up close on a daily basis! They truly are depressing. What we see from our balcony is what you see here in the second photo.
