I thought I could stump you guys in the past, but I was wrong everytime. I'm going to try it again

There is a very interesting story behind this pic, but I'll tell it after you guys guess it.

I got those in my yard I don`t know what there called though.:D
 
is it butter and eggs? can't think of the latin name off hand.
 
It reminds me of something called bird trifoil - or something to that effect.
 
it look like bird's-foot trefoil, Lotus corniculatus, although I dont know what country you are in and where you got it, so it could be something similar...
 
Oh, I have no idea.

I believe Mr. Morley and I are referring to the same thing - only his rendering is far more taxonomic.

If it is bird's-foot trefoil then it is quite common in the UK

Perhaps it came over from Europe, just as the dandelion had, during colonization and / or exploration?

Looks like Utricularia macrorhiza at a glance.

How about a picture of the folliage/leaves - that should help.

It`s a very small plant and you have to look hard to see it of course it`s usualy so numerous as to give a orange haze to the ground.....
