and fungi
Two of Scotland’s three insectivorous, rather than carnivorous, plants -
Cuckoo flowers en mass outside the Ariundle Centre. They seem lately to have become the iconic spring flower of Strontian.
Cuckoo Flower in dark ditch. So called because they tend to flower with the first Cuckoos.
Sea Pinks at the richer end of the colour spectrum which these plants exhibit. To be found on saltmarsh and beach rocks.
No idea but grows in marshy habitat usually near the sea.
Mix of flowers on marshy open ground near the beach.
Primroses thriving in open wet woodland.
? On sand/shingle just above high water mark.
Snow white fungus and moss on floor of pine wood growing in previous cycles brashings.
Boletis and moss on pine needles in a very dark pine plantation. [Taken with flash.]
An array of mosses colonising a road cutting in Polloch-
Butterflies.
A Sloe bush. On the road to Dorlin. OK so its not a flower but it is useful.
More of the pure white fungi. [Taken with flash]
A Flag Iris, one of the characteristic flowers of the area.
A type of violet?
