Seeing the Changes 1493

It's the end of the summer but lots of plants on a walk down through Crawley woods (on the Gower) via the dunes. Lichen was much in evidence on the established dunes as were bunches of Juncus reeds. Flowers and their products spotted included Traveller's joy (Clematis vitalba); Forking larkspur (Consolida regalis); Sea rocket (Cakile maritima); Rest harrow (Ononis repens); Agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria); Mouse-ear hawkweed (Hieraceum pilosella); Michalmas daisy (Aster novi-belgii); Orpine (Sedum telephium); Small scabious (Scabiosa columbaria); Field scabious (Knautia arvensis); Burnett rose (Rosa pimpinellifolia)- the flower and the hip and Bloody cranesbill (Geranium sanguineum).
