Some of the flower photos from our walk on 7th August. Enjoy…
St John’s Wort after flowering. Not sure which species. I have this in my garden and I’m most upset because mine haven’t turned this wonderful crimson-red!
Hares Foot Clover…
Tansy…a herbalist remedy for intestinal worms!
Teasel with lady-bugs snuggling tight (Bishies in this part of the world!)
Corn Marigold, Corn Cockle and Mayweed showing their colours amongst the bracken…
Field Scabious…
Corn Marigolds and Poppies, such a bright combination…
Bladder Campion. Love these, they hang around like fragile ghosts…
Toadflax…
Hemp nettle… it was growing just into the woods…
Bittersweet. Since childhood these flowers have fascinated me…
Bittersweet berries. Oops, poisonous!
Old Man’s Beard, aka Traveller’s Joy, the wild cousin of Clematis…
And that’s all for now folks. Hope you enjoyed.
More next week!
