Common Gorse (Ulex europaeus) (Ulex europaeus)

I just love the Coconut/Marzipan smell of Gorse.

I spent a few days of one of my honeymoons at Bantry Bay one hot April and one of the hills above the bay was clothed in the yellow of Gorse. The heat from the sun and the still air meant that the scent was almost intoxicating (or was it love?) . . . no, it was definitely the scent of the Gorse!
Funny how some things remain in the memory . . . lol.
