Well, I feel stupid, but I'm not sure I know what colzas are. Are they similar to rapeseed?

Pretty much the same, I believe, Aurora.

Yes Aurora, I've found the translation : colza is rape : a bright yellow flower
Thank you

Thanks Bill and Damien. I agree with Alan then that the juxtaposition is a good one! :)
