Hello,

I noticed this plant growing at the top of a sandy beach in northern
France in June 2008.

Could somebody please tell me what it is?

Sorry about the poor picture quality -- they are stills from video
footage.


Thanks,

by my modest knowledge it could be alyssum maritimum
(Strand-Steinkraut), but its flowering time, conforming my guide, is
nov. to jan. - what date did you take the picture?

That's likely to be Cakile maritima (mustard family).

Yes, I think you're right!

Thank you (and Kauhl) for your replies to my post.
