An adaptation to hostile circumstances. How to flower even though a mower keeps on chopping off your head.
Charles Darwin would have been proud of this clever little survivor

This is worth photographing: it's a new hawkweed popped open today - but it's on a very, very short stem, no more than one inch long.

Over <<<<<< in the wild flower garden ( ) a new inhabitant has infiltrated . Watched it develop and couldn't identify it until today when the buds began to show that it would be a yellow flower.
It's a Common St John's Wort which is ever so good for depression, anxiety and suchlike afflictions.
Another bird-gift obviously and will be put to good use .........

congrats on your SJW. A word of warning. Once established they are difficult to discourage. As long as it is where it is meant to be all should be fine.Placido wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 4:47 pmOver <<<<<< in the wild flower garden ( ) a new inhabitant has infiltrated .

The St. J's wort flowered yesterday. The bright yellow flower is just like a small 'rose of sharon'. Bees and hover flies like it .

I noticed today that my Elder tree is blossoming again on some branches while there are nearly ripe berries on other parts. Rather strange I thought
Re: WHAT'S GROWING IN YOUR GARDEN ??
Elder tree - know what you mean, Jacksparrow. I have a pyrawotsit doing exactly the same thing right now.
I have a bit of a hangup with elder I'm afraid - had terrible trouble once with an infestation of elder which was coming in under the dividing fence. Very difficult to eradicate.
Birds love it though
