Tanacetum vulgare (common names: Common tansy)

I know what you mean,but I keep a small patch for those yellow buttonlike flowers.

I took out a lot of this plant last year and I too only left a small patch.

Like green plumage on some exotic bird...

Soft and gentle, nice picture too.

Beautiful photo!!

Here is the green and gold for Australia. I like that herb. Can you actually eat it too? The leaves or the flowers?

You could infuse the leaves or flowers very weakly as a tonic, for nervous complaints, a poultice of leaves would help sprains. It's mainly used as an insect repellant though, ants especially steer clear of it. It is quite toxic if not used correctly. In Finland, the leaves, stems and flowers are used for dyes.

Is that the peony poppy ?
My M I L introduced me to them quite a while ago, we took her to visit one of her friends who had them in her garden. She very kindly saved some seed for me which I grew in my last garden. They made such a wonderful show every year without fail.

Do you know Xela, I'm not sure. They suddenly appeared and are beautiful but only about 2" across, I shall save some seed for later.

The poppy, tansy and lily compliment each other so beautifully.

Many thanks Mia.

What a beautifully balanced picture Janey altho I am not expert on that. I love it!

Aw thanks Gloria.
