Pimpernel usually grows in the wild, indicating rural or natural settings in conversations. During our field trip, the pimpernels added a splash of color to the green meadows.
Pro Tip 2/3
Color Variants
The pimpernel plant can have different flower colors, not just red, such as blue or yellow. She made a bouquet with blue pimpernels from her garden.
Pro Tip 3/3
Not Always Red
'Red pimpernel' is specific while 'pimpernel' alone may refer to any variety. I prefer the mystery of the blue pimpernel compared to the boldness of the red.
