Purple Milk Vetch

[mike_j]

I have been photographing some of the more common flowers for the 'what to see' section of my nature reserve website http://fbhh.org.uk. We tend to concentrate on the more exotic and rare and ignore the other species to some extent.

This is the tiny little purple milk vetch



and the even smaller Speedwell



One of the rarer plants is the man orchid - a close look at the 1/2" high flower shows why it is so named

Re: Purple Milk Vetch

We're big fans of wildflowers here and we have a section of the garden dedicated to meadow flowers. I especially like Vetch, very popular with bees too


BTW ... I deleted the 'dead' posting for you as original posts of new threads can only be deleted via the board control panel.
