Which flower is this?

Apolonija10. 09. 2013 21:31:52

Usually grows in moist woodland soils, I've met it several times already:

You can see my computer is messing with me, Apolonija thanks
Now that I know it, I'll find it more easily mežikanje

You quite often encounter this kobulnica of ours at the start of every mountain trail in the forest. Now it's seeding.

Common sanicle-Sanicula europaea-wood sanicle-Apiaceae. Sanicle in the forest on the path to Štefano gora.

This is sanicle in the forest above the ski slope at Zelenica. It is a pleasant border trail that runs above the ski slope through the forest from the beginning of the ski slope to the hut at Zelenica.

A little to spice up the otherwise nice views for tomorrow. Surely some flower from the hike. This time I won't say where I'm going. Already yesterday I made a selection-otherwise modest-albinos that I found this year. Not all of course, since I didn't photograph all or the picture didn't work.

Talin or anemone probably isn't the real albin, because we see white variant and pink everywhere.

On the path to Vogel I found white alpine campion - this is the habitat.

Alpine thistle - albin - we recognize this thistle by its spiny leaves.

This should also be a thistle - from Žagarjev graben. It was definitely a thistle - most likely broad-leaved - unfortunately no photos of leaves.

Carnations are often white - these are Montpellier ones.

I spotted the common orchid twice around Zelenica - this one is from Vrtača.

Pyrenean rockjasmine from Storžič was almost white.

Brane, are you afraid we'll pick all your chanterelles? velik nasmeh

Apolonija13. 09. 2013 17:00:19

Otiv, are you picking them??? On Pokljuka?

otiv13. 09. 2013 17:07:47

Apolonija, just whatever's in the nearest forest at home. nasmeh

velkavrh13. 09. 2013 17:36:46

No, I'm not a mushroom picker. Others bring us enough of them, chanterelles are protected anyway and shouldn't be picked, if I'm correctly informed.

Now to our flowers. As is known, I botanized Krvavec with the wider surroundings. Now I know that I actually took too large a territory for botanizing and didn't capture all flowering flowers throughout the growing or flowering season. Also somehow I didn't photograph all of them - say black hellebore, small bellflower, common willow gentian, wood anemone, although I saw them at the beginning of the season. Also I didn't submit all flowering flowers here, because only that will count as found. So I'm reviewing the recorded material and unpublished and perhaps unrecognized again and submitting today only from one tour. Some pics are unfortunately a bit worse.

Clustered bellflower - found already on Jezerce pasture.

Rock groundsel - Senecio rupestris - found on Kriška planina. I always find it in the same spot. Very similar to the branched ragwort and St. James's ragwort. We distinguish them by the leaves.

Starry rock-cress was found on the Jež ridge.

Flower of darkish arnica - found on Jež ridge.

I also find oval gentian. The light blue one is similar, they differ by leaves. I have found a completely white one - not an albino - it is tufted gentian.

Narrow-helmeted lousewort - there are many already before Kriška planina.

Toothed lousewort - flowers below Veliki Zvoh on the path to Dolge njive pasture.

Bavarian or Carniolan primrose. The Bavarian is larger, they differ by the length of the calyx leaves. I will check which one it is.

Triumfetti's clover - grows on the slope near Rozka.

Oklinkani bodak - grows on Krvavški pastures.

Ivanščica - flower - exact determination is a bit harder. Blooms on Krvavški pastures.

Upside-down flower by which the species should also be determined - I'll try.

I think it's the fragrant wolfsbane, even though it has lost its color.

Klasasti ušivec - I presented the others - found on Jež ridge.

Lepnica - probably low - Silene pusilla. Grows on Jež ridge.

Common Lloydia - Lloydia serotina - found on Jež ridge.

Shaggy rockjasmine. This year I almost missed the rockjasmins or I was looking for them too early when they weren't blooming yet.

This is another edelweiss growing in the rocks along the path to Planina Dolga njiva.

But such a blooming one I found on the Kalci.

There are several species of broomrapes. Probably the small broomrape - Orobanche minor. They are harder to identify. In our country also grow branched, scarlet, white, reticulated, sticky, common. Yellow, Alsatian, buck's, yellowish, sage-leaved, gracefu

I see many kobulnice on my paths. Because they are unknown to me, I photograph them less. Who knows this one. It grew on the path from the junction below Vrh Korena to Planina Dolga njiva. Unfortunately I didn't photograph the leaves.

Apolonija13. 09. 2013 21:49:29

A bit of the leaf is still visible. I think it's Cretan athamanta (Athamanta cretensis). Regards

velkavrh14. 09. 2013 04:36:13

Apolonija, thanks! I already presented the Cretan athamanta in one of the Krvavec explorations, so it wasn't new. I have made a list of flowers that I found and submitted on individual Krvavec tours. I went up there for that purpose seven times. What I presented yesterday was a full-day tour - Planina Jezerc, Kriška planina, Krvavec, Veliki Zvoh, Ježa ridge, Vrh Korena, Kalci, Kalška gora, entire Kalški greben, Planina Dolga Njiva. The rest were half-day tours - 2x Krvavec, Kržišče, Planina Dolge Njive, Veliki Zvoh and one winter one when the snow hadn't melted yet. Before I go on a full-day tour, hoping there won't be snow, I'll submit the unpresented ones from the Veliki Zvoh tour.

We know several species of orlic - this one is too small for the large-flowered, found on Kržišču. It is not Julian, as those are only in the Julians.

This was from mid-June. At that time a lot of alpine repnjak blooms.

Bitter grebenuša - Krvavec - I tried it.

Plahtica - medicinal plant which is collected en masse on Krvavec along with ranjak and wild thyme. There are several species of plahtica, however.

At poponih or sončecu, I haven't got to exact identification yet - lower the large-flowered, egg-shaped and common should bloom. Higher the mountain one - much smaller flowers. This bloomed on Kržišču.

This is probably just the flower of repnjak.

As I have mentioned several times, kobulnice are my weak spot, but they are interesting. I found this kobulnica near the hut on Krvavec - this is its flower.

It had such characteristic leaves. I haven't delved into identifying kobulnice yet. My kobulnica is Haller's jelenovec.

I still need to identify this tiny flower. It is viviparous dresen.

I have another kobulnica found below the hut on Krvavec. This is its flower.

I see many orchids in spring, but I don't know them because there are many species. This is the starry orchid.

I think these two are quite similar. Many of them bloom on Jezerce pasture and Kržišče, Kriški planini - not higher. I know this is not the common one, nor the bee orchid. Last year I found the spotted one, this year I didn't find it.

Apolonija14. 09. 2013 06:56:49

11, 12 Haller's hartwort
13 viviparous fescue
16, 17 starry fritillary

Today a late summer floral greeting from Dolkova Špica.

Above the tree line among grasses there is a lot of stem-clasping saxifrage.

There is a huge amount of cup gentians. The hairy one I saw right as the tree line ended, higher up there were none.

Edelweiss - this stand was much higher up,

There are still many inflated bellflowers.

Rock-cresses are already rare, there is the evergreen and this furrowed one.

The bristly and homulični ones are also present - on the picture.

Homulični rock-cress turns wonderfully red after fertilization - not always.

Even closer - the rocks are glowing - there is quite a lot.

Apolonija15. 09. 2013 08:20:51

Hohenwart's rockjasmine is really beautiful. I didn't know it.

velkavrh15. 09. 2013 11:27:56

Today only a few flowers remain from three visits to Krvavec with surroundings that weren't presented.

Mountain catchfly, also called slanozor - Silene quadrifida. It differs from the four-toothed by stems which are slightly reddish-brown. Flowers are identical.

Common globose orchid - Orchis globosa, also called Traunsteinera globosa in Alpina flora. Common in spring.

Golden cinquefoil, it is identical to crantzev's too.

There are several species of high-alpine zlatics. I don't know exactly which this one is.

Carniolan treacle-mustard - Erysimum carniolicum - crucifers - Brassicaceae.

Blackish stonecrop - Sedum atratum subsp. carinthiacum.

Dark violet columbine - Aquilegia atrata - buttercup family - Ranunculaceae.

It could also be resinous orchid, we also have the common one. The flowers are identical, only the resinous one has a different color pattern in the flowers.

The fringed bellflowers I didn't find flowering this year - this one was still in buds. Later I found only spent ones.

Already at the starting point on Planina Jezerce there is a lot of ivanščica. Probably the common one. Habitats of the liburnian and diverse-leaved ones are not confirmed in our area according to Flora alpina, which I often reference. They grow with our n

In spring from Kržišče I forgot the common alpine bellflower, there were lots of it next to both jegličs, both telohs, and Bohinj repnjak. Later I find it also on Krvavec and Planina Dolge Njive.

There are also plenty of Lučnik's, which I actually can't distinguish.

This is also a couple more flowers from the Krvavec visit on 27.08.2013 - that smetlika.

Apolonija15. 09. 2013 12:44:16

Brane, I knew aurinia only from gardening, haven't seen it in nature yet, probably rare. Are you sure it's on your picture? How do you distinguish it from Carniolan primrose? Regards

velkavrh15. 09. 2013 19:59:16

Apolonija, I checked the primroses and saxifrages. Indeed, the flowers of Carniolan and fragrant primrose as well as rock saxifrage are similar. Leaves are not visible on my picture. Rock saxifrage is supposed to be shiny yellow, so it holds that it's Carniolan primrose. Of the primroses I know the oxlip well.

velkavrh16. 09. 2013 06:14:49

Good morning! I was alerted to a wrong identification of the red-tinted rockjasmine. This is bullate rockjasmine, because Hohenwart's simply doesn't grow in the Julian Alps - really didn't check. Explanation why red - after fertilization several species of rockjasmins and bullates color in red shades (not always).

No, that's how I photographed it for the first time - it's not red. In Hoppe's handbook it says for the hoary one - tall hairy stems and leaves - glandular hairy, stems small sparse leaves, grows like from some rosette whose flat leaves narrow into a spin

The leaves and stems are clearly visible.

This one is red colored. But I found the common ones much lower, soon after the bivouac in Rušje IV., the red colored one under Križ - whole plantation - red rocks as I said and that red color misled me.

Apolonija16. 09. 2013 07:55:35

These two rock jasmines are very similar. I remembered that I encountered Hohenwart's on Črna prst.

velkavrh16. 09. 2013 08:48:13

This morning I'm continuing the review of published flowers from botanizing Zelenica and surroundings. Really many were presented on other hikes. Especially for this list I'm presenting them. Now I have more experience how and when to botanize and how to photograph especially undetermined flowers. Next year it will be better.
