Ranunculus acris (Meadow buttercup, Tall buttercup)


This flower is everywhere at this time of summer. It has a beautiful colore and we call it "Smørbomst" and it means "Butterflower". When we were kids we took the flower and held it under our chin. If it made our skin look yellow it was a sign who showed that we liked butter a lot. It was a kind of children play. The flower is poisen however and the horses can eat everything on a field, but they allways leave this flower behind.
