Image of dying stem and leaves of Giant Hogweed

Seeds of Giant Hogweed

Seeds from Giant Hogweed all gone - likely in river to be seen behind plants

Dystopian moment: No #GentianFamily but hunting Giant Hogweed & sadly found it & so close to #RiverBann for seed dispersal. #MountsandelWood #Coleraine

Phone App identified what I thought it to be, I missed the flowers but there we have it, the fruits developing on possibly the most poisonous plant in UK fruiting

Plant dying off and yellowing but fruiting continues

No #GentianFamily but fruits of Hemlock Water-Dropwort, said to be the most poisonous plant in UK. #MountsandelWood #Coleraine

Nipplewort flowers macro - tiny yellow flowers up close on plant about 5-6 foot tall

About 10 heads of purple to pale blue flowers of Water Mint in the boggy areas of the woodland

No #GentianFamily but Nipplewort as tall as me and Watermint was abundant in #MountsandelWood #Coleraine
