| | | ID confirmations please Hi folks, any help gratefully received on these
A Sea Spurrey I think but which one?
I`d like this to be Seaside Century, but is it?
Thanks for taking the time to look

| | | Re: ID confirmations please 1. Rock Sea Spurrey - Spergularia rupicola.
2. Can't see the leaves which are the 'give-away'. For Seaside C. they should be long, narrow, strap-like, leathery and a yellow-green, as are those in the basal rosette.
Seaside C. is commonest around the coasts of Wales an Cornwall.
So would have to go with Common C.
Dorts.

| | | Re: ID confirmations please Hi Dorts, I found these other photos. There were several of these plants growing along the coast path. Does this help, are those the strappy, yellow/green leaves in the first photo?
Thanks for spending time on this

| | | Re: ID confirmations please Thanks for the extra pics. Unfortunately they still don't show the basal-rosette of leaves. The flowers on the 2nd plant have that blue-pink colour, correct for Seaside C. and there are a couple of leaves on the firs pic. that look good, but that alone is not enough to make a definitive ID.
Sorry.
