Which flower is this?

darinka421. 08. 2017 20:24:26

Thanks to both for the reply. nasmeh

Otiv, what do you say? Do you think it's a mallow? We have three growing here; common, musk and woodland. Since the color is more intense, most likely woodland. Also characteristic are darker veins on the petals. Do you see them? If the flower was open and leaves visible, identification would be easier, right? The color seems so intense, as if it were even a cultivated subspecies of woodland mallow - Mauritanian mallow (Malva sylvestris mauritiana).

At my place too the arum has colored nicely. But it's the Italian one.

zlatica22. 08. 2017 21:46:45

Apolonija, what all do you have in your home groves eek

That Italian arum is taller, right? lp

otiv23. 08. 2017 06:26:30

Apolonija, many thanks. You really are a true botany encyclopedia...incredible. nasmeh

To me it first "smelled" more like flax... velik nasmeh

Yesterday I was on Komna and Lanzevica...it was nice, although flowers are slowly departing for this year.

Yesterday a hike to Srednja peč.

There are many cowberries. They are not yet ripe. It seems they weren't flowering yet when it froze.

There is a lot of sviščevec, unfortunately I can't distinguish the species.

Hairy sviščevec opens flowers when the sun comes out.

Otiv, you see, you praise me too soon. When you mentioned flax, of course it could be sticky flax. Just the color isn't usual. You saw the whole plant, if you remember. The leaflets on flax are completely different from mallow. I think you're right. nasmeh

otiv23. 08. 2017 10:10:47

I looked at the picture with leaves too and it's definitely not mallow. I didn't dare claim it's sticky flax, due to the unusual flowering time. Obviously everything is changing, which I experienced yesterday on Komna, where I found blooming fragrant wolfsbane and it smelled wonderfully. nasmeh

Yellowish leek (Allium ericetorum)... hope I'm right, but didn't find anything else on the internet. Photographed yesterday on Lepa Komna.

zlatica23. 08. 2017 20:32:06

Otiv, of course you're right. nasmeh

Apolonija23. 08. 2017 20:34:27

Otiv, I'm "for" it too. On Zaplana they translate it as yellowish leek, botanists as PALE leek nasmeh

A bouquet from yesterday from Smrekovec.. lp

otiv24. 08. 2017 20:57:17

Zlatica, Apolonija, thanks for confirmation. I saw the name yellowish also on the Gore - Ljudje page, where Alenka nicely presents our leeks and I'm really surprised by the number of them.

Zlatica, did you go for firewood to Smrekovec? velik nasmeh

velkavrh25. 08. 2017 07:09:37

In the mountains the drought of our summer is strongly noticeable. Yesterday on the tour Razor, Planja, Bovški Gamsovec I had the chance to really notice it. Even the edelweiss has finished blooming. I barely found the very last flowers. Only both cow-wheats are abundant now.

Spiny thistle - this one definitely resists the drought, equally prickly sow-thistle. Some Onopordum is also found.

More like the last flowers of the mullein.

Other scree flowers are practically no more.

Almost the last flower of the Triglav rose.

Under Razor by that karst cave the Carniolan stonecress was hiding.

On the Kriški podi I finally spotted a flower of the Triglav gentian.

Only this fighter somehow resists the sun, and even it is already completely dried up.

This bunch of Clusius cinquefoil I finally spotted on Luknja.

zlatica25. 08. 2017 08:37:21

Otiv, of course I had to go for firewood, since winter is approaching velik nasmeh

, and I even took 18 people with me to help carry the logs velik nasmeh

. As for leeks, Otiv, I adore them just like houseleeks. These are modest plants with special charm. Here 22 species are described and found, of which I've seen only a modest third. Your edelweiss and gentian you went high to find again, huh?
Branko, you walked well and in a non-dry year our page would choke with flowers you'd find on that path. But that's how it is this year and so our eye spots that little flower to capture it in the lens, which we'd otherwise pass by. Greetings! nasmeh

Aha, how beautiful they are! velik nasmeh

Flower experts, botanists, one request. On my herb bed something is growing that I think is chives, but it has flat leaves and a white flower. Is this chives?
Thanks for the answer.
Is it a type of onion? I put it in soup.

Apolonija25. 08. 2017 22:45:12

jprim, hello! From the description I conclude you're growing Allium tuberosum, commonly- Chinese chives. So it's a type of onion. Grows in SW area of some Chinese province, from there they spread it worldwide with cultivation and it ended up in your (and also my) garden. Just use it in food.

jprim26. 08. 2017 07:50:53

Thanks for the reply. Because I share it with other gardeners, they don't dare to use it. Now I can explain the thing to them.
Best!
