Ah.. it's Fringe Cups!

[Rambling Rob]

Hello,

Having not found it before, this flower had me baffled for ages so I thought I'd post a couple of pics here in case anyone else has not met it before. Its identity Fringe Cups, Tellima grandiflora , in the Saxifrage family, was tucked away in the back pages of my old wildflower book, among non-native introduced species.

Here it is growing beside a sunken lane winding beneath old woodlands on the IoW..



The flowers are, indeed, attractively fringed and further down are turning red..



It's not native, but I like it - an interesting deciduous woodland species.

All the best,
Rob
