Karl,
super shots from the wild. Like especial the Primula clusiana.
Thanks for posting.

[Ragged Robin]

These walks with you in the Austrian Mountains are wonderful showing the landscape and habitat of such beautiful wild alpine flowers at this time of year....I shall look out for more of these flowers on my walks in the Alps in Switzerland, thanks Karl.

I was away with friends in the fountain valley again six days later. The mass of flowers still has increased, Primula clusiana flourishes extensively and the Gentiana clusiis shine off the steep slopes. Only more is in store for Primula auricula right above where in exteme ravines the snow settled for a long time. Between this one found Callianthemum anemonoides, Pinguicula Alpina ,Hutchinsia alpina and other more again and again. The plants grow there. the area is partly very rough and the creeks leading Scneewasser must be crossed on overturned trees in a pure lime gravel with only quite low Humusantei.

Karl, your photos are exceptional and the scenery stunning - looks like you had a great day for walking - the gentiana group in the brown grass are perfectly set off and the primula clusiana is magnificent growing like that.  Can you tell me what the difference between this and P hirsute is?  It is growing here in rock clefts not in open grass but I'm wondering if I have the right ID?  (pic in Alpine Walks in Valais thread)

Karl, we were not in the mountains for a longer time ,so we enjoyed your beautiful
pictures especially. It is always a wonder what nature can do; better than any gardener.
Thank you for showing them.

Karl, thanks for taken us with you on your mountain trip in the Brunnental.
Looks like a beautiful area, where I passed several times but never went to walk or botanising.

Karl,
your picture from Brunnental resembles me as a painted scenery from the famous US painter Bob Ross.
A phantastic caught of a moment in the mountains

Armin, nature has painted these pictures.

A plant which is wonderful and smelling strong is here some pictures of the Narziisenwiese within the Alpine pasture valley,  Narzissus poeticus this one year for year fills me with enthusiasm.

Karl, what simply amazing sight, your photos capture the narcissus pastures with such joy...I am going to see them near Montreux this week and can't wait now I've seen your posting
