Artist's Comments

Does anyone know the name of this plant in English? In Finnish it's called ketunleipä and an other name is käenkaali. Those mean fox's bread and cockoo's cabbage x D Hilarious. When I was little I used to eat them sometimes. They taste good and are not poisonous or anything. But you can't eat a lot of them at one time, because they have some acid in them, I don't remember what acid that was.. Maybe the same that is found in rhubarbs?

Edit: It's Common wood sorrel ^__^

Clovers. :)

Nice photo! I love the close-up and the shadow the clover in front casts on the one behind it.

But I don't think those are clovers : o Because these are [link] clovers and they have totally different kind of flower.. But they do have similar leaves. [link] This is the flower of this plant. And I found out that the scientific name is Oxalis acetosella ^^ So this might be (by wikipedia) Common wood sorrel. What a weird name : D

Aiiii! Then whatever happened to the four-leaved clover? Or am I just getting all mixed up? @_@ Anyhow, I'll stick with classifying and naming skinks and butterflies for now at least... plants are tricky things. ^^ Glad you found out what it is! :)

Sorry if I mix you up, I'm not the best either in naming nature things : D
But the four-leaved clover does exist, this plant and clovers have really similar leaves and sometimes you might find a clover with four leaves ^^
