We have been away doing a couple of overnighters in our camper and visiting my Mom and Sister. Only approx 100 km away and a huge treat to see them. Nice to connect, Miriam and share some of the good on our planet. 🙂

Hiya, B, this cute colourful thing 😊 I found out is called Arum Italicum.
I am sure each country has a more local name but personally I find the
Latin one very apt. X
