It looks like a Passion Flower. Don't know the botanical name. Butterfly's love them. So pretty. Thanks for posting. 🐓🐓

[wordsword]

I've been searching. I do not believe it's a passion flower. The passion flower is more of a climber and has a more complicated flower.

What it is I'm not sure though, I've been thinking of a corn flower, but find it to different.
The search continues ;)

Thank you for your reply and upvote :)

It is a pretty flower that caught my eye. Let me know if you are able to identify it. Now I am curious. 🐓🐓

[wordsword]

I'm quite sure now it's wild chicory/wikipedia

Could be the cultivated one though that I sowed it, without putting a shield next to it...I do those kind of things ;) lol.

There are each year, a bunch of leaves growing there from which I though it was either endive or chicory. Well I think it's quit clear now.

Here's a few pictures.

Is it some sort of thistle flower?

[wordsword]

No It's not a thistle flower.

I'm still searching for what it is.
