Whats that wild plant?

My first thought from the way it is growing was one of the stonecrops (Sedum). -- Regards. Bob Hobden. Posted to this Newsgroup from the W of London, UK |

Thanks Stewart, that's bang on. I didn't spot it in my Wild Flowers book because the illustration was so poor.

The botanical name is Glaux maritima or Lysimachia maritima depending on which botanist to listen to. (Glaux - and Anagallis - has been found to be nested in Lysimachia, but the floras haven't caught up, and it's possible that in the end Lysimachia will be dismembered rather than Glaux and Anagallis sunk.) When not flowering it's harder to distinguish from sea sandwort (Honckenya peploides). -- SRH |
