Flowers in my meadow

[stramorebees]

Hi Guys

I have a meadow that is alive with bees at the moment..
I know the purple flower is a green manure called Purple Tansey, but I can't figure out what the yellow one is. It has the most beautiful sweet smell and the place is covered in it! I have attached a photo showing the yellow flower.

Thanks
Robert

.purple is Phacelia and yellow Sinapis arvensis or ordiary rape.

Thanks Finman. I never even thought of the rape, as there's none in our locailty.

yellow one looks more like Brassica napus, or oilseed rape to me.
