We're heading there middle of August.  Hopefully no snow.  Will be located in Bressanone.

  I've decided that even though we lost several days hiking due to snow, this is my new favorite time in the mountains.
From mid-scree almost to the top, as abundant as dandelions.  Enjoy, Cliff!

Maggi, I wonder would it be worth separating out Trond and Anne's wonderful posts of wild plants into dedicated threads in the Travel section?
With their agreement of course.
Good idea Ashley. I wondered if they might make a new 'flowering in the wild' thread..... let's hear from Anne and Trond ........

I like the combo of garden and in the wild myself, Maggi, but will certainly go along with whatever you think is best.  What would you search for? I don't want to miss one of Trond's posts!

What about the IRG for Anne and Trond's wonderful travels? Especially if there are other Forumist's who know the same places well - there is a superb website detailing the Svalbard flora: http://svalbardflora.net, and I know of a fine little book on the Dolomites!

So many great plants  8)

Your Lysimachia paridiformis var. stenophylla is flowering better than ours, Wim.
