New one for me! | If you ever go to Minsmere RSPB Reserve it's quite common between the car park + the visitor centre along with Anchusa arvensis. I think it's about the only place I've seen it! |

Evening Primrose growing in the sand dunes at Dawlish Warren. I thought summer had come at last but clouds back by 4pm and rain tomorrow.   |

I think it's about the only place I've seen it! | Mine was growing with vipers bugloss (still flowering atm here) which was the plant that attracted me over to the patch in the first place. You couldnt see the fiddleneck until you were right on top of it. Lovely bright yellow flowers, just a bit small.
Only seen Anchusa arvensis in field margins in Oxfordshire!

Nodding Bur-marigold and Celery-leaved Buttercup growing together in flooded field that is normally dry this time of year. At least the flowers are enjoying the wet summer   | | | |
