Anka, that should hold. The flower isn't white but pale pink. Thanks!

Another photo of creeping gypsophila in company of potbellied bellflower (at least I hope so).

The photo is from today, taken on Zg. Dolga Njiva pasture below Tolsta Košuta. Similar to Pannonian souslik, or am I wrong?

Babim, it holds. On the first photo the pink color and flower shape weren't well visible, on the second one the pink color and shape are well visible and the worse photo misled me.

Legenda, yes it is Pannonian souslik, otiv also posted this one.

We can also find a nice little flower on Kum. I'll try for the names later, of course if I succeed.

Now a couple of little flowers from yesterday's ramble on the paths of Krvavec.
Now is the time for various bellflowers. Clustered bellflower on the path from planina Jezerce towards Kriška planina - campanula glomerata.1
On Kriška planina everything is full of cross-leaved gentian - gentiana cruciata. It is just starting to bloom. It also belongs to the gentians.2
Nice bunch of fairy thimble bellflower - campanula cochlea riifolia3
Nearby grows a similar bellflower which is a bit more violet coloured, it is Beck's bellflower. There are many more fairy thimbles. Both colour everything blue from the saddle towards the summit of Veliki Zvoh.4
Behind the fence at the saddle below Veliki Zvoh there is a patch of this beautiful flower. It is narrow-leaved willowherb - chamaenerion angustifolium - family Onagraceae.5
Common birdsfoot-trefoil - Lotus corniculatus we find everywhere6
Sternberg's pink - mountain carnation - Dianthus sternbergii - belongs to pinks, still blooming above planina Dolge Njive.7
St. John's wort can be picked almost everywhere on Krvavec. But it is not necessarily St. John's wort, mountain and spotted centaury are very similar.8
Common black knapweed9
Common thistle, we find it on the edge of pastures, not on grassy fields.10

In the literature I found that the last picture is woolly-headed thistle; it says it grows on forest edges up to 1500 m.

For the fourth bellflower I would determine that it's Carnic; I can't find the name for the fifth flower anywhere - it seems to me that it's bloody cranesbill.

On the fifth picture is narrow-leaved willowherb (Chamaenerion angustifolium)

On the second photo is cross-leaved gentian, the candlestick is silky-haired (silky-leaved) gentian. The bellflower on the third picture is probably rusty (leaves not visible). On the fifth picture is willowherb, on the ninth picture is common blackhead. The last one is not woolly-headed thistle, it's probably the common one. For identification I recommend Foto-narava gallery. You can type the genus (thistle) into the search and you'll soon be closer to the solution.

A very good starting point for identifying plant species is kamniski-vrh.net - in my opinion the best botanical website in the Slovenian language.

Yes, Žan you're right, really good page, but in this album there are far too few plants that we hikers photograph, so we need to search for additional sources as well.
Also more experienced plant connoisseurs are good help.

Today from the tour to Begunjščica I'm not bringing any particular floral richness.
My Pannonian marmot just below Roblekov dom.1
Below the hut the last Turkish carnations are wilting.2
On the ridge beside the path grew this barely noticeable little white speck. There were several and only here. This is the long-flowering pearl.3

Babim, I think the fourth picture isn't Carniolan bellflower, because that bellflower has a more pronounced trumpet, the shrubby one isn't either. If I look at pictures of Scheuchzer's bellflower in both handbooks that I have available and my not-best picture, the similarity is identical. There was less of it on the growing site than of the potbellied one and by color it is more violet, so it was visible from afar that it was different. Only these two species grow under Veliki Zvoh—it's really all blue. So you are right.

Willowherb confused me a bit, because on none of the shown pictures is it like my shot. Yesterday I noticed it also on the tour to Begunjščica. It grew just above Poljska planina; I call such a growing site among brushwood—not a very respectable growing site.

Anka, thanks for the explanation. It's really a bit harder to determine a flower that I pay attention to for the first time. I stumble upon a bunch of similar ones and of course miss. That's why we have this forum, to get to know them. This year I'm progressing quite well; you can acknowledge that.

In some hut this year they served me brandy in which a pearl was soaked. The drink was green in color. Which pearl was that! On planina Pod Lišcem on the botanical path I saw mountain pearl. There were only leaves, it wasn't flowering yet. It grew on one rock. In the handbook only coastal pearl is mentioned, which is endemic to Italian and French Southwestern Alps. On the list of flowers of the botanical garden above Vodnikov dom there is no pearl listed.

Today there's nothing else but to study what I shot last week. By far the richest was the harvest on the Krvavška tour. From a botanical point of view I highly recommend it. It starts right away on the path above planina Jezerce and doesn't disappoint us at the end when we finish at planina Dolge Njive below Veliki Zvoh.
We encounter Bavarski zali kobulček almost on the entire path, except of course in rocks and scree.1
Immediately after planina Jezerce on the path to Kriško planino we encounter flowers that are characteristic of the pre-alpine world before the alpine pastures like the velecvetni naprstec.2
This includes goli lepen.3
Various tall bellflowers, I don't know the name.4
Common goldenrod, perhaps the mountain subspecies.5
Right during the descent towards jelkenicam on the Ježa ridge an extremely long crusty limestone surprised me.6

In Slovenia there are six species of pearls, none of which is coastal (long-flowered, mountain, Turin, dyer's, field, Beck's). Which is suitable for soaking, I don't know.
More photographs: http://galerija3.foto-narava.com/thumbnails.php?album=search&search=Asperula.
On the fifth photograph it's common goldenrod, maybe alpine subspecies, if it was lower than 20 cm.
