Which flower is this?

velkavrh12. 04. 2015 08:32:56

Zlatica's first pic is really a small puzzle. If the whole flower was visible it would be clearer. Leaves don't look like five-leaved hempnettle. Flowers not fully open yet. It is five-leaved hempnettle. The flower looks like that because it's not fully developed. Sometimes perennial honesty escapes into nature, which has such leaves and flower structure on otherwise branched plant and can fool us, but perennial honesty flowers later. Three-leaved spike is correct, because other spikes don't flower yet.

Also note, under no. 40 and 41 you have cypress spurge, which you correctly identified on 7.4.2015, resinous doesn't exist.

Five-leaved hempweed photographed last year.

Apolonija12. 04. 2015 08:58:34

Brane, surely you meant annual honesty, which grows in gardens and sometimes escapes, perennial is native in forests. Annual has upper leaves without petioles and "coins" are round, perennial has leaves with petioles and in autumn more elliptical coins. I also thought of them, but really don't know if they would flower already.

Hello, my experts, maybe it will help if I add another pic of this flower under no.1, but it's a bit less sharp, leaves are somewhat more visible, quite extensive, stem quite hairy. Plant wasn't tall, 30-40 cm high, when I moved the foliage, creeping root was visible. Too bad I didn't photo more!

zlatica12. 04. 2015 09:58:00

I browsed a bit more on the net and books on honesty and found out that it should really be annual honesty-Lunaria annua, as Brane and Apolonija mention as one option. Interesting! Deep in the forest, far from homes, and still escapes!! But true, I stumbled on it in not fully adult variant. This honesty should flower from April on, sometimes it says only from May.. Thanks everyone for help and recommend myself for next time. velik nasmeh

Yes, I really meant annual honesty. At my place on forest edge it grows wild.

Since at least in Gorenjska mid-mountains almost nothing except rare exceptions flowers yet, I checked nearby slopes, groves and Kokra river canyon again and photographed many interesting things.

Here is also proof from the leaves that it is the correct one.

Surprise – already the first flowers of the meadow bloody cranesbill.

Already last year I found in Kokra canyon the wedge-leaved rock-jasmine – it still lacks about a week until flowering.

The yellow milfoil will also flower then.

I also found another species of golden saxifrage that has different growth from the ripe one.

It also has larger stamens. Could it be the field or tuberous one?

Woodland violet is also already flowering.

Apolonija12. 04. 2015 13:07:24

Brane, you found many little flowers and nicely presented the three-leaved speedwell. (In my garden it doesn't flower yet, also milje and wedge-leaved rockcress not yet.)

Zlatica, you saw the plant live and can determine it most easily. Especially on the second picture it really looks like annual honesty. Some bird lost the seed nasmeh

zlatica12. 04. 2015 14:34:31

You are right, Apolonija. Birds are great co-creators of nature. Brane, you also succeeded in presenting us a nice haul of flowers. Good that you distinguish these golden saxifrages among themselves, I know for now only bulbous golden saxifrage, haven't delved into other species yet. Similarly, wedge-leaved rockcress is new for me. Maybe you could present some golden saxifrage species sometime....?! Nice Sunday. nasmeh

On the Šmarnogorska Grmada daffodils and šmarna hrušica have bloomed.

Apolonija13. 04. 2015 20:59:31

Brane, does your zlatica creep?

Franci, nice photos you share with us. Do you eat fruits of šmarna hrušica too? I like them a lot. nasmeh

Edina13. 04. 2015 21:30:48

So many beautiful posts about little flowers published, I'm quite embarrassed. Still, I'll post the link, as I found the first blooming daffodils there where we'll all admire and smell them with great joy in the coming weeks. Even with little flowers, the first are the prettiest and they brightened my day today, let them yours too nasmeh

Apolonija, I rarely eat some šmarna hrušica if chance takes me to Grmada then. This year though I said I'd go pick them, maybe for marmalade too if there are enough.

Apolonija14. 04. 2015 07:36:24

Franci, marmalade will surely be good too.

Edina, nice photos and good text.

Tadej, under 12 is bleda kukavica, our earliest orchid, under 8 I'm guessing too as I spotted this little flower yesterday and attach it in pics....We need help, right?
Edina, nice photo travelogue you prepared for us and eye rejoices at this year's first narcissi.
And one more blooming contribution of mine from yesterday ramble..lp nasmeh

and also the root with leaves of that flower ??, which has a tall, thin stem

?? also roots and leaves of that ?? flower

velkavrh14. 04. 2015 11:54:32

Under Tadej's No. 8 is trilistna penuša.

francimedved14. 04. 2015 13:29:59

Zlatica, nice photos, where is the cowslip blooming already?

otiv14. 04. 2015 19:15:12

On Gobavica I always find some little flower I don't know, so I'm asking for help. nasmeh

Thanks also to Apolonija and Brane for help with my previous post. nasmeh

Apolonija14. 04. 2015 19:37:13

Tadej, on the last photo the eagle fern is waking up.

zlatica14. 04. 2015 22:04:32

Velkavrh, thanks for the lady's smock, franci, cowslip is already blooming on Šenturška gora, which is only 671m high and therefore warm enough that it has already burst into such bloom. From picture 15 by Otiv and my 34 I just don't know if it's stinking toothwort or coralroot bittercress, because visually it's the same flower.??? lp mežikanje
