Which flower is this?

velkavrh20. 06. 2016 10:45:14

Waiting for Bavščica and catching minutes between the rain.

This morning I came across nettle-leaved bellflower.

Finally I found spreading bellflower. On Zelenica there are plenty right at the start of the path, but I didn't photograph it.

This is that creeping cinquefoil, which covers the meadow.

For variety, also this flowering rock-jasmine at my home.

Maybe Apolonija will know what this cultivated rock-cress is - until now I haven't noticed it.

At the neighbors' I noticed this interesting cultivated bellflower - in nature I saw them last year on a tour of Velebit.

Like Zlatica I greet you from the sea.

I agree with otiv that it's probably common burnet-saxifrage (Pimpinella saxifraga). Brane, you describe large burnet-saxifrage, it seems to me. The common one is more white than pink.

That saxifrage has leaves like Saxifraga aizoides,
the bellflower is Campanula poscharskyana.

For the hawkweed I chose hairy hawkweed-I think that's right.

Today I also went to my favorite slope and found lots of new flowers.

Right on the edge of my little meadow grows soft sedge.

On the edge of the field grows common burdock.

The forest is full of upright speedwell.

In the forest I find red skullcap for the first time.

Here I also find peach-leaved bellflower - also for the first time.

This also grows in the undergrowth in the forest. This is common herb Paris.

I also find this white flower - I don't know it.

Finally I reach my hillside - willow-leaved primrose.

Clustered bellflowers are in full bloom. I grow them at home.

Brane, I can't distinguish your unknowns well. Could it be a more crumpled and stunted yarrow.?

It could be hairy hawkweed, of course. It seemed strange to me that you didn't think of it, because you've photographed it several times in previous years and know it well. That's why I thought you had ticked it off. nasmeh

To break this already several-day silence on the flowers page a bit, and flowers for you from the Dalmatian coast where I was vacationing.. Some are very generally known, some I found in my handbooks and named them so (hope mostly correctly), but some still remain for which I didn't find names, so every hint of yours is welcome. velik nasmeh

Mediterranean burnet or white-veined grint

unknown, reminds me of hawkweed, especially due to the seeds it forms

Italian viper's bugloss (Echium italicum)

(+1)

otiv25. 06. 2016 17:08:28

Zlatica, weren't you on vacation? velik nasmeh

Nice!!

There are too many hawkweeds to know their names. This one I met today on Grmada - ŠG

zlatica25. 06. 2016 20:31:04

Otiv, if that's not pyramidal helleborine, then I won't say anything more! zmeden

Apolonija25. 06. 2016 21:51:48

Oh, dear otiv, this is also a vacation velik nasmeh

Exploratory. First you search for plants, then good shots, then even names. Do you agree? Zlatica did everything excellently. She listed some other flora for us, a bit less known to us. It's really interesting how to extract the right genus from flower characteristics and find the species too. Zlatica, did you ask the locals too?

The shrub is in my opinion privet- (Ligustrum ovalifolium)

I also really like those white woolly plants, like this one on 22 and 23. If you look closely at the flowers, they can remind you of elecampane and leaves of laserwort. And indeed it's Laserpitium-leaved elecampane- (Inula verbascifolia)

27, 28, 29: You already figured out well yourself that it's Biscutella. Just which one? There are quite a few species.

Also on 31 and 32 it's Italian viper's bugloss ((Echium italicum)

I haven't seen spiny Pallenis (Pallenis spinosa) yet

Yellow leek (37 to 40) is indeed called yellow leek (Allium flavum)

Regarding the orchid you're right. Pyramidal helleborine is actually more characteristic and easier to recognize when not all flowers are open yet, because they form a nice pyramid. nasmeh

otiv25. 06. 2016 21:53:00

Zlatica, I'll just trust your knowledge... I see you master the whole thing. Thanks nasmeh

Apolonija, I myself was never a fan of lying on the beach, the underwater world attracted me, shells, fish, crabs and of course the sunset, which is so attractive here.

I don't know if this is similar to any pyramid, zmeden

that it's not a hawkweed seemed to me, because there's no order in the arrangement of flowers. Real Babylon on the stem. velik nasmeh

Apolonija25. 06. 2016 22:25:00

Otiv, pyramidal helleborine is also an orchid and despite the Babylon you can see the flower shape characteristic for it. (You thought it's not for example finger hawkweed...)In the pictures you can see pyramids and with fully bloomed Babylon. velik nasmeh

I hope you don't have hail nasmeh

zlatica26. 06. 2016 09:52:33

Apolonija, Otiv, it was really nice reading you both. Apolonija, you immensely delighted me with the listed data on all my unknowns that didn't give me peace. And especially for the yellow leek! Whatever I searched on the net, that type of leek defined as yellowish leek (Allium ericetorum) always appeared in the picture, even if you look at this: http://www.gore-ljudje.net/novosti/68457/, of course now, since you told the Latin name, everywhere with that name my yellow leek appears. And now you also solved the riddle for me about elecampane. For years I've been watching it by the sea and for a while I attributed the name degenija to it, then I realized that's not it, well, now I finally know the real name. Regarding spiny trnek (Pallenis spinosa) I wavered a bit also between similar seashore star (Asteriscus aquaticus), which is more cushion-like, but my trnjek was solitary. According to literature there's similar another nebinovka-Jericho trnjek (Pallenis hierichuntica), but it's almost stemless. best regards and dear flower lovers, share some of your blooming finds with us too! nasmeh

Apolonija26. 06. 2016 11:36:59

Zlatica, regarding allium it wasn't hard for me, because I have both at home.
I don't know much about it, but it also seems to me that you made the right decision about the trnek. A synonym for Pallenis spinosa is also Asteriscus spinosus. The plants are quite closely related. For Asteriscus you can also find synonym Buphthalmum aquaticus, our primožek is Buphthalmum salicifolium. Indeed, if you look only at the flowers, they are quite similar.

zlatica26. 06. 2016 11:56:06

Yes, super, you really have all that at home. These leeks are very interesting to me. You nicely indicated the connection with our primožek, there really is great similarity between them. ciao mežikanje
