My wee holiday in the Dales for #wildflowerhour - a thread.
First, some calcareous friends: Scabious, and Origanum @wildflower_hour @BSBIbotany
This one was new to me - I was sure it was a fancy Galium/bedstraw, but though I got the family right, I think it’s Cruciata laevipes, or crosswort #wildflowerhour
Here’s some water mint, Mentha aquatica - haven’t seen this for ages, always nice to meet an old friend https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😄" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit geöffnetem Mund und lĂ€chelnden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht mit geöffnetem Mund und lĂ€chelnden Augen"> #wildflowerhour
And finally, from a grazed Fremington Edge: a disputed white thing (terrible pic though, sorry) @richardwaites suggests pearlwort, I think saxifrage. It had very pronounced pink anthers - thoughts? #wildflowerhour
Just to add the resolution on the pics seems terrible. They are much better in their uncropped glory - let’s try this...
