Some of the flowers from our walk on 30th June 2023. Hope you enjoy…
Bladder Campion…
Stonecrop, not sure which species…
Mullein and Vipers Bugloss…
Weld, a popular medieval dye plant…
Small Balsam, this is the only place I know where it grows!
Easily mistaken for Balsam, this is Enchanter’s Nightshade…
White Bryony…
Everyone knows this one: Honeysuckle…
Tutsan, the wild form of Rose of Sharon/St John’s Wort…
Knapweed. The knap element means knob…
Scabious with bee!
And to finish, Pink Campion and Bracken…
Hope you enjoyed. More next week!












Is there anything prettier than a flower in the wild? Boy, Enchanter’s Night Shade and Balsam really do look similar. Is Bracken a sort of fern?

And both are not exactly commonly found, and yet always found in same place (woodland). The bracken, yes, that belongs to the fern family, but the fronds spread out from a central stem…tree-like. It’s possibly the most common fern in UK, definitely so in Norfolk

I figured it had to be. You’ve made me a little bit smarter. π
