4 Not sure
5 Oxford Ragwort
6 Not sure, maybe Changing Forget-me-not
7 and 8 Mouse-ear species, possibly a 5-petalled version of Sea Mouse-ear

| | | Re: Dune Flowers ID helps please! Numbering would be great, specially when I'm peering short-sightedly at them at this time of night! |

| 1,2 I'd wondered whether it was Field Mouse-ear because of the flowers but the leaves seem more like Stitchwort leaves?
3 Help needed please!
Peering as hard as I can but what makes this one Sticky Storksbill and 9,10 Musk Storksbill? |

3. I am pretty sure that number 3 is Sticky Stork's-bill - the greyish colour to the leaves looks right to me.
I am not sure that any of the pics are Musk Stork's-bill - the leaves are right - but the flowers look wrong to me. I don't have any better suggestions though... |

| Ah, does Musk Storksbill have narrower petals? |
