some delightful weeds

[Gerdk]

When I explored a recently build footpath not far from my home I came along a field with a delightful
set of ' weeds ' which attracted a lot of insects and also some photographers - one of them was me.
I want to share these impressions.

What a great place, Gerd.
I could spent a day walking there.

Hello Gerd ,

thank you for your nice pictures of "Klatschmohn" -not so often in this time .....

Yesterday by a walk we found near fields many Kornblumen ( Centaurea cyanus ) + Kamille

Weeds...don't get me started. It's all a plot to get us to ruthlessly eliminate plants from our spaces. I had Cichorium intybus blooming in the garden in NJ with its singular blue--and then discovered the white flowered form down the road--which is beautiful and the third of the variants (the other is pink--haven't seen it this year) to be sought out.

Gerd I would say it is any field margin in Spain!. Which is species is the viola? V. kitaibeliana?

Rafa, these kind of field margins became very rare here in the north. The violet is ordinary
Viola arvensis.
