Description
A Busy Bee is pollinating a pasque flower or Anemone pulsatilla (Pulsatilla vulgaris). The flower is 'cloaked in myth'; one legend has it that Pasque flowers sprang up in places that had been soaked by the blood of Romans or Danes because they often appear on old barrows and boundary banks.
