I'm a bit late for #WildflowerHour but here's a montage of wavy bittercress anyway #CabbageFamily #Brassicas
Forgot to post on time for #wildflowerhour. Three #cabbagefamily species looking good this weekend: garlic mustard and cuckooflower, plus a tiny-flowered bittercress (6 stamens, so wavy I think).
Hoary whitlowgrass (Draba incana) rosettes on limestone crags in Co Sligo - admittedly a week or two ago, but #wildflowerhour #cabbagefamily challenge is too good a showing-off opportunity to miss for this otherwise shy and retiring little plant. @bsbibotany.bsky.social @wildflowerhour.bsky.social
