Which flower is this?

velkavrh28. 07. 2012 16:41:27

Today flowers from the trip to Kalška gora from Žagana peč.

Without edelweiss of course not - on the top of Kalška gora.

Zois bellflowers really cannot be mistaken for others.

Still alpine avens-Dryas octopetala-Rosaceae.

Heart-leaved globularia-Globularia cordifolia-Globulariaceae.

Rhaetian poppy-Papaver alpinum ssp. rhaeticum-Papaveraceae.

Sieber's rampion-Phyteuma sieberi-Campanulaceae.

This one grew next to the blue blackheads.

Hello!
I too am a big lover of mountains and alpine flowers, despite my advanced age I still like to go to the hills, of course with my indispensable photo equipment and I photograph, photograph .... preferably little flowers. Then at home identification follows, which doesn't always work out. While looking for help for an unknown flower I came across this wonderful forum where I have already found many answers. Today I attach a photo of a flower which I suspect belongs to thistles. If anyone recognizes it, I'll be happy.

Inserting the image doesn't work for me somehow, so I attach a link to the image:

@Rak
Probably the handsome thistle. With plants where you're already in doubt on site with determination, photograph all parts of the plant. Important is the shape of leaves, hairiness of leaves and stem etc ... so there are never too many photos.

@peter2 - I too have already decided on that, given how important details sometimes are.
Thanks for the answer.

This little flower grew yesterday on the path to Škrlatica, soon after the start, by the scree path. There was only one. Among the pictures it was most similar to the tufted bellflower, but its inflorescence is smaller, leaves smooth and sharp... maybe it's some other?

beautiful, perhaps clustered bellflower?

velkavrh11. 08. 2012 09:05:32

Lidija Jesih, it is tufted bellflower, just had poorer growing conditions and didn't grow higher. But it has such leaves. L.P.

Today for warming up before tomorrow's Montaž rather a walk to planina Osredek and thus all flowers of planina Osredek on 11.08.2012.

Silky-fringed gentian or candle-Gentiana asclepiadea-gentians-Gentianaceae has started blooming.

The flower of angelica, that large umbellifer, is large.

St. Jacob's ragwort-Senecio jacobaea-groundsels-Asteraceae.

That beautiful Witasek's bellflower-Campanula witasekiana-bellflowers-Campanulaceae is large.

Meadow goat's beard-Tragopogon pratensis-groundsels-Asteraceae.

Sticky flax-Linum viscosum-flaxes-Linaceae.

Stemless carlina or prickly carlina - Carlina acaulis - Asteraceae.

Long-leaved mint - Mentha longifolia - Lamiaceae - the whole meadow waves in greyish-blue color.

Right around the huts on the meadow there is a lot of wood mallow - Malva sylvestris - Malvaceae.

Heart-leaved fleabane - Pulicaria dysenterica - Asteraceae.

Fleabane seen for the first time, there was only one growth.

I also find cross-leaved gentian - Gentiana cruciata - Gentianaceae.

All yellow is wood ragwort - Senecio nemorensis - Asteraceae.

Common scabious - Scabiosa columbaria - Dipsacaceae.

We can't miss the good thought, of which the meadow is full.

Common thistle - Cirsium vulgare - Asteraceae.

Today all flowers of Planina Pekol with Montaž.

Tufted bellflower-Campanula cespitosa-bellflowers-Campanulaceae.

Lots of hairy rhododendron-Rhododendron hirsutum-heaths-Ericaceae.

Rhellicani's murka (black murka)-Nigritella rhellicani. Years ago we called it black murka, then botanists realized that black grows only in Scandinavia. The red one is now called bicolored.

Creeping baby's breath-Gypsophila repens-pinks-Caryophyllaceae.

Triglav rose or shiny cinquefoil-Potentilla nitida-roses-Rosaceae.

Julian poppy-Papaver alpinum ssp. ernesti-mayeri-poppies-Papaveraceae.

Single-flowered knapweed-Centaurea uniflora-daisies-Asteraceae-at 2,000m. They have short stems and only one flower per stem. There are huge numbers above Pekol pasture towards the pass.

One-flowered chickweed-Cerastium uniflorum-chickweeds-Caryophyllaceae.

Cochlear bellflower-Campanula cochleariifolia-bellflowers-Campanulaceae.

Furrowed rockcress right from the top of Montaža. It is its subspecies-Carniolan rockcress.

After detailed study, I concluded it is the Austrian gentian-Gentianella austriaca-gentians-Gentianaceae-inflorescence at the same height, calyx teeth are longer than the calyx tube.

Just for comparison, I'm putting the photo of the early sviščevec back in, which is substantially different from the Austrian one and can be distinguished.

Well I found it, Zois bellflower.

otiv16. 08. 2012 18:19:06

It wasn't hard to find it, since it's marked big

Today on a wonderful day to Vodnikov dom. Autumn is already felt. Flowers are slowly departing. Looks like I missed košutnik this year. There's plenty only of both edelweiss.

Lots of candelabrum fungi in the forest above the parking lot for Planina Konščica.

On Planina Konščica the woolly-headed thistle reigns.

Along the path before Studorski preval, embracing-leaved silene.

There are lots of hairy bellflowers everywhere.

Along the path also full of stiff silenes.

Already on Planina Konščica, then on the whole path and also around Vodnikov dom lots of cup gentianella-Gentianella anisodonta-gentians-Gentianaceae.

The cup gentianella is supposed to have cup leaves turned outwards, which is well visible on the photo.

Near Vodnikov dom I also find the first fringed gentians. They are as blue as marmots.

Rock jasmines are mostly already over at this altitude - this is the hairy rock jasmine.

Gentians are still flowering like this pink one. This is Haynald's.

And also the blue-triumfettijev hawkweed.

Today in this heat to the pleasant cool of the Koroški slapovi gorge and all its flowers. True there are almost no waterfalls.

On the meadow before the gorge there are several thistles. This is the soft thistle-Cirsium oleraceum-Asteraceae.

Common carline thistle, also carlina-Carlina vulgaris-Asteraceae.

Already on the slope at the end of the meadow before the gorge there are plenty of hairy bellflowers.

Already at the parking lot, this yellow beauty.

Heart-leaved toadflax - somehow smaller growth than I found it on the Osredek pasture - but there are many right at the parking lot by the stream and then also before the gorge.

It really grows here in the wild - cutleaf coneflower - Rudbeckia laciniata - Asteraceae - grows right at the beginning of the gorge on the stream slope.

In the gorge in the shade and coolness dwells the broad-leaved helleborine.

This is dyer's saw-wort-Serratula tinctotia-aster family-Asteraceae.

This is the third representative of masterworts-Carniolan masterwort-Astrantia carniolica-Apiaceae. It grows throughout the Koraški waterfalls gorge-it needs shade and moisture.

Hairy willowherb-Epilobium hirsutum-willowherbs-Onagraceae.

Common betony-Betonica officinalis-mints-Lamiaceae.

Leek-leaved hawkweed -Hieracium porrifolium-hawkweeds-Cichoriaceae.

Goldenrod-Solidago virgaurea-aster family-Asteraceae-is also a medicinal flower.

There is also a lot of willow-leaved primrose.

Last flowers of Fritscher's gentian, which has characteristic leaves and cannot be confused with other gentians, especially pink ones, which look very similar at first glance.

velkavrh25. 08. 2012 05:06:44

Now a little break until next hikes so posting still unpublished photos from past hikes.

On high-alpine screes and among rocks we find several species of hawkweeds from dimki, škržolice and jajčarji. This should be a representative of jajčarji, namely alpine jajčar - literature writes that leaves are pinnately divided, if distinctly divided t

This is also a flower - from the tour to Bogatin-Kuk.

On another site on the same tour I find a similar flower with a similar blossom, but with leaves not so divided, therefore it is alpine or stemless.

The difference in leaves is clearly visible. It is hard to identify the variety of jajčar. The common one is densely hairy: brumatijev cannot be confused, because leaves are narrowly lanceolate or linear, and it grows only on shingle beds of Soča and Nadi

Vanež in a hollow on the path to Bogatin Kuk.

Nice photo of popona or sončeca. Exact determination is a bit more demanding.

Repičasti bodak - Carduus carduelis - grew right on the top of Črna prst.

Photo of common šparnica from the path to Češka koča.

This was taken this year 26.05. in the walls of Komarče - leaves are flat. Belongs to the radičevke family.

Elongated ušivec - path to Špik Hude police. Elongated ušivec is a subspecies of julijski. Locally also pale yellow and hayuetov grow, the latter has a classic site on Črna prst, but I didn't find it this year.

Narrow-helmeted preobjeda - path to Montaž.

Alpine thistle - Carduus defloratus ssp. defloratus - nebinovke - Asteraceae - Characteristic is that it has spiny leaves - path to Montaž.

Golden dimek - path to Montaž - if growth conditions are poorer it has lower stem.

And this riddle from the path to Rodica - Črna prst - Suha plain - it's a radičevka - the whole meadow looked like this - golden dimka.

This is how this yellow one looks up close - later it turns orange.

In between there were these orange ones - this is how the coloring proceeds.

This is oklinkani bodak - Carduus personata - nebinovke - Asteraceae - Tura to Stol.

This is the elongated lousewort from Črna prst - Pedicularis elongata subsp. elongata.

Beside it grew this one too, which is completely identical in growth to the elongated one, only that it is slightly pinkish.

tinky26. 08. 2012 00:52:23

isn't it beautiful?

Kokta26. 08. 2012 01:50:52

Kamniška speedwell

velkavrh26. 08. 2012 06:46:02

It depends on where it was photographed. If it was photographed in KSA, it's really kamniška. But I think it's bicolored, previously called red. This grows only in Julijcih. For kamniška it is characteristic that it is lighter, whitish below and has a more round flower. Kamniška grows only in KSA. This year I saw huge numbers of them on Kamniško sedlo. Unfortunately, the photos didn't turn out at all.

Just for identification I'm posting this photo up there, otherwise I don't post such photos.

These are last year's photos taken on Veliki Špič - these are two-colored. This year I didn't see them. On the Ture I saw only relikanijeve (black ones).

tinky26. 08. 2012 09:43:03

I photographed murka on 12.7.09 during ascent to Vrtača.

velkavrh26. 08. 2012 10:36:33

Yes, Kamniška murka grows in some places in Karavanks. Habitat is right. But such strong, say red color is not usual for it. All those presented on various forums are whitish below.

This one was somewhere between Zvoh and Vrh Korena.
