Spring Flowers along the Way

Yellow is such a joyous color.  I was surprised to see fields of yellow lupin.  

Yellow Iris

Imagine walking through a hillside covered with Calla Lilies.

Bees were busy gathering pollen from the flowers.

Walls of stone covered with flowers growing from cracks and crevices encouraged us to pause and enjoy the view.

Have you ever seen a white Asphodelus albus before? I was most interested in the sparkling beauty of this flower.

We took more pictures of Wisteria's than any of the other flowers along the way.  This Wisteria tree is in full bloom.

I was tired of kneeling on the ground to take pictures of Scarlet Clover (also called Crimson clover) and struggling to get back up after our long walk along the way.  I said to Stephen, wouldn't it be nice if we saw some of these flowers on top of a stone wall.  Within a few minutes they obliged, and were there in all their glory.

Every day we saw the Umbilicus rupestris growing out of walls.  We had never seen this plant before coming to Portugal.  

Turns out it is an edible perennial, also called Navelwort that I could have use on my sunburn.

Each flower looks like a little bell. It's called Bell Heather & provides lots of nectar for the bees.  

Any ideas as to what type of flower this is?
