Bird orchids are not common - and this Green Bird Orchid is even rarer. Should be coming into flower about now, so worth watching out for.

A simple Ox-eye Daisy flower (Leucanthemum vulgare), but if you look at the tallest "petal" just right of centre, the tip looks sort of torn off. Actually it shows the tips of the petals which were fused to form this "Ray Floret". What looks like a single flowerhead is a composite of hundreds of individual flowers. Many plants do this, they are in a family called the Asteracea - it's a very successful strategy.

Common Cornsalad (Valarianella locusta) (probably).There are half a dozen species of Cornsalad, this being the commonest, and they are tough to distinguish. As the name suggests, this plant is edible in salads. This one was on a cobbled pavement area in the town, I wouldn't recommend eating one picked from there!

Yellow Rattle (Rhinanthus minor). This plant is considered to be essential, if you want a wildflower meadow, it parasites on grasses and keeps the robust grasses from dominating. It's an annual and the seeds are very short lived, they need to germinate in the winter after the plant had flowered. Also they apparently need 4 months of below 5C to germinate, so how it doesn't die out after a warm winter is a mystery to me. #PlantADay #Botany #Nature #Plant #Wildflower #BloomScrolling
