| | | A few more flowers for ID You'll have to excuse me, I am trying to ID these from book but finding it very difficult with them! I find it much easier going out with someone and having them tell/show me in the field
1 - I believe this is an Umbellifer of some sort??
2 - Charlock??
3 - A Speedwell of some sort?
4 - No idea
5 - Again no idea, thought it was a Dandelion type thing but it had spikey leaves
Many thanks,
Nige |

| | | Re: A few more flowers for ID Think 3 and 4 are Willowherbs of some sort. Dorts will know I'm sure.

| | | Re: A few more flowers for ID I will have a go at three of them just to test my knowledge or lack of it! 
(I am no expert)
2. Wall Lettuce?
4. Great Hairy Willowherb?
5. Some time of Hawkweed?
Dorts will be along soon and he will definitely know |

Thanks,
Nige | In Hoary Willowherb the whole plant is covered in fine grey hairs, almost like a 'down'. Plant stems are often reddish.
It's a bit like a Greater W'herb but only a third of the size.

Dorts. | OK kool it was a lot smaller than the Great Willowherb which is why I thought it was something different
Thanks for the help.
