Goldmiths campus, SE London -- a patch of lawn now maintained as long grass/whatever grows. In the first couple of years a good range of plants has come up. This is the remains of last year's Hemlock patch; this year's shoots already coming up through the fallen stems. #apiaceae . In the foreground, Caper Spurge Euphorbia lathyris -- apparently an #archaeophyte and a Euphorbia -- no connection to capers. #WildFlowerHour #PlantReport #Botany
