A pale pink Campion. Could be Red Campion or could be a hybrid with White Campion. Either way it’s definitely #PinkFamily ! #WildflowerHour

It's the little things that get me. Thyme-leaved Sandwort, in Caryophyllaceae, #PinkFamily London -- I had never consciously seen it before. Of course, being small it would often be overlooked, and also under-recorded -- but I look for small plants. Are many other people here familiar with it, or do you see it regularly?

Red Campion for the #WildflowerHour #PinkFamily challenge. Not one of my more difficult botanising trips - it's growing in a planter in my front yard in which I encourage wild flowers. Not that they don't also take over the rest of the yard, but some of them aren't so good at growing in the cracks. #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography
