Garden wild flowers

In about half an hour's looking after work yesterday evening I made a list of what turned out to be 31 flowers and grasses, plus 1 insect, bringing me up to a grand total of 88 so far.  I made a point of ignoring several mosses which I will work up to another day!

I didn't include dandelion or bramble - what is the general feeling about aggregates?

  1. Nice work Marilyn. We're suggesting not to count dandelion and bramble aggregates.
