Colchicum autumnale, known as Autumn Crocus, Naked Lady or Meadow Saffron resembles true crocuses, but blooms in autumn. The Naked Lady name comes from the fact that the flowers appear in Autumn with no leaves. Leaves arrive in late Spring and die off in summer. The Autumn crocus has six stamens while true crocus have three. They are only distantly related.
The corms are deadly poisonous and there is no known antidote. The active ingredient is colchicine, which is used in medicine for the treatment of gout.
This was taken in March with Canon 450D.
Thank you for your views and most appreciated comments. :)

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
What a title. You sent tremors through me timbers. No known antidote? Im staying away from those. Pretty though.

I see them here too in autumn but never knew that they were nude models! Nice and colourful shot Lyn.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Fabulous capture and love that presentation. OK what program did you use to create the turning page. Gorgeous colours of these delicate flowers

We have these plants here, but they have much longer stems and they are more of a pink color. These are gorgeous, though!
