Catkins, I posted their colours last year and today just had to draw them.
...from my seasonal colour sample notebook.
"A unisexual inflorescence, consisting of rows of apetalous flowers ranged in circles along a slender stalk;" - Shorter Oxford English Dictionary.
That's what the dictionary says! I say, look out for the brightest green/yellow colour of their tails against a blue January sky and it will put a spring in your step - it did mine..!
