Which flower is this?

velkavrh26. 03. 2014 17:12:16

The mid-mountain has whitened again and delayed the flowering of the first mid-mountain flowers again. I went on a trip along the Kokra river.

Forget-me-nots are already blooming around every corner.

Čemaž meadows on Ovčane by the Kokra river - about half an hour from the town of Kranj.

By the Rupovščica river I find a stand of golden anemone.

On the meadows the first wood sorrels are sprouting.

We already find the first spurges - this one is cypress spurge.

All sorts are already sprouting. Otherwise I don't know what will grow from this - the leaves are nice though. This will be knife-leaved šmarna clover.

Slightly different leaves. This will be the small strašnica.

Are you picking ramsons, Brane? It's just sprouting here. It's surely blackthorn. The leaves on 10 remind me of scissor-leaved bird's-foot trefoil, on 11 of butcher's broom.

Today on Golovec already noticed flowering blueberries and almost didn't believe my eyes. Maybe in May already blue. nasmeh

Apolonija26. 03. 2014 22:48:40

Vito, maybe they'll bear twice. nasmeh

otiv27. 03. 2014 07:28:58

Yes, would be good, but picking blueberries twice a year isn't easy either, poor my back. velik nasmeh

Greeting from the garden.

Thanks for the flowering greeting,
acts like first aid,
of course for soul and heart,
for anything else, go to the doctor. nasmeh

otiv28. 03. 2014 15:07:41

I don't have a garden, so I head into the nearby forest, where I quickly find something, of course not for eating, but flowers that adorn the forest glade. nasmeh

Apolonija28. 03. 2014 15:11:52

vito, will you have a photography course? I'll sign up. nasmeh

I also loooove going to the forest, but no time right now.

otiv28. 03. 2014 15:25:04

Happy to share a tip, but I don't know everything perfectly either. velik nasmeh

Yeah, retirees always lack time. Mornings we tidy up, afternoons we look for where we put things. velik nasmeh

otiv, nice. I see that you find even more little flowers than I do in nearby forests and glades. Under Nos. 2 and 3 is golden saxifrage - judging by the hairy stem it's hairy golden saxifrage. I haven't seen it this year yet. Under Nos. 4 and 8 you have common hare's-foot trefoil. Under Nos. 5 and 9 you have forest vetch. Under No. 6 forest starflower - starflower can be up to half a meter tall, No. 10 almond-leaved spurge, No. 11 is three-leaved bittercress - at least I think. Common wintergreen, which we already know well, you have on three pics.

Otiv, or will it be the same with me in a year and a half?

otiv28. 03. 2014 16:27:42

Brane, don't take everything I write seriously. velik nasmeh

Humor is always welcome. nasmeh

Thanks for the flower names, I'll enter them right away so someone else learns something. nasmeh

Apolonija28. 03. 2014 19:38:36

But I have already seen hairy golden saxifrage this year. This "three-leaved bittercress" confuses me a bit, since the leaf rosette isn't visible. Vito, you'll have to repeat it nasmeh

. The flowers confirm it's a crucifer. Hairs are visible on the stem and some lance-shaped leaflets, which isn't typical for this bittercress, right, Brane? Unless they are already seed pods. Lp

otiv28. 03. 2014 19:52:58

I jumped right back into nature,
took another pic for identification. velik nasmeh

velkavrh28. 03. 2014 20:12:53

I found otiv's white crucifer. This is undoubtedly sand bittercress. I recognized it by the white flowers of Kamniški vrh. We recognize it by leaves in the basal rosette and by branched growth. Crucifers characteristically have four petals.

This is the three-leaved anemone. It will appear in ramsons habitats as on the path to Jakoba above Preddvor.

The three-leaved anemone also has completely different leaves. Those large ones are not from the anemone.

By the flower, the crucifers are really similar - this is alpine rock-cress. It will delight us in the mid-mountain and high-mountain all summer.

This can also be seen in the alpine foxtail. The alpine foxtail can be found all summer in the mid-mountain and high-mountain.

The Bohinj foxtail also has such a flower. This one is from the Jezerce pasture below Krvavec - it blooms here together with the spring and Clusius' primrose.

But I am still in a dilemma about this crucifer from the top of Virnikov Grintovec.

The leaves and stem are hairy, leaves oblong, growth prostrate and branched. The flower is not like that of the early bladderpod, definitely from the crucifer family.

I'm back and see that identification is progressing. Brane, I agree with your diagnosis. I had this plant in mind too. When I find time, I'll look at yours, no. 6.

Apolonija28. 03. 2014 21:28:30

Brane, what about alpine braya? Braya alpina?

velkavrh29. 03. 2014 05:10:08

It'll hold - I already sent it for identification, but I couldn't determine it. Probably I've seen it elsewhere too, just it didn't catch my eye or it's so rare few know it. I need to check Flora Alpina where it grows. After the review, I found they have it in the Ljubljana botanical garden. After this review, I see it's very widespread in the USA. I'll check Hoppe too.

Apolonija29. 03. 2014 18:23:20

The day was wonderful, so I expect new pics from you two. For the soul towards evening I too shot some flowers, but it won't go, won't go. All blurry. Gotta read instructions or ask you two, Brane and Otiv.
