| | | Sea Mouse-ear ?
Apologies for this shot being a couple of months old, but does the white flower look like Sea Mouse-ear Cerastium diffusum ?
Flowering amongst Stonecrop on Culver Down, IoW, in April.
Thanks, Rob

Looks a bit short for Sea Mouse Ear. I think its Dwarf Mouse Ear - it has reddish bottom leaves which can be seen in the photo |

Thanks KT. I wondered about that. The photo's not as clear as I'd like. Certainly very reddish, as you say. Couple of things made me wonder about Sea Mouse-ear. It was quite low and sprawling, not so upright as some Dwarf Mouse-ear I saw in grassland a while back, and also the hairs looked a bit glandular. Here's another shot, but not much clearer really,
