    Alexanders, Abbotsbury Hill (reckon that car probably crashed avoiding all the people standing in the road taking pics of wildflowers).

        You been having another fire?

        At least the Police have now erected a sign to help protect wildflower photographers standing in the road, but they forgot the one saying 'no torching wrecked motors'. Looks like a few Alexanders also got burnt.

          The signage is pretty spot on though @Scrungee

          "Police Aware" and "Police Slow" ... to do anything about it!

                          Think I can ID those three wild flowers for you @nFrost. Ox-eye Daisy, Vetch (not sure which one) and White Campion. :dbgrtmb:

                            Thank you. I really like the White Campion, looks like its quite difficult to germinate though.
