Wild Flowers you have seen while out walking....!

Good Morning Shiney, that's what I thought however, I did the test you told me to do with the leaves and they do not smell of onions more of a sweet smell... really fresh, so I am more persuaded to the white bluebells as the flower is very sweet smelling too

 

Out for a walk today, following a small stream through the woods, I came across this small, yellow flowered plant growing in abundance in the shady, boggy ground alongside the stream. Can anyone tell me what it is?





Found a few Marsh Marigolds adding a splash of colour in places.

 

@Trunky

Opposite leaved golden saxifrage

 

Bumping this @Apple Blossom as I've gone out and taken pics of both



White Bluebells



Three Cornered Leek.

 

Main difference is the triangular flower stem on the leek, as opposed to the round stem on the bluebell.

 

Lesser celandine



Cowslip

 

You don't see many cowslip in the wild but i'm planting lots in the garden
But why do they call them cowslips

 

Out walking in the huge Royal woods in Brussels and the surrounding areas over the last couple of days...


We saw bluebells, didn't we girls?


A close up of a mix of bluebells, celandine and wood anenome


The anenomes were carpeting the woods, in places

 

Old English - Cu (cow) Slyppe - (poo)

Heard of them being called Cowflops too

 

So the cow sliped in the poo

 

Nice one @Zigs Thanks for that, I had no idea what it was.

Looked it up and apparently they're quite rare in this part of the country, so a bit of a find. Probably explains why I hadn't come across it before.

 

Took me 3 books with no joy, then looked at it and decided saxifrage, back tracked it from there till I found it

 

Yep

 

The bluebells are looking really good this year, loads of flowers about.
