I should have checked earlier in the week for the #seedhead challenge but I found this among the pictures of my Northern Irish adventures. A plantain going to seed. Possibly Ribwort Plantain (Plantago lanceolata) #wildflowerId #wildflowerhour wildflowerhour BSBI: Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland

Here are some photos of the lovely macrophytes in the River Lowther, with Water-Crowfoot at top, perhaps River (Ranunculus fluitans) on left & Thread-leaved (R. trichophyllus) at right, with Water-Starwort (Callitriche) below. #Wildflowerhour #WildflowerID. #Rivers #cumbria 16/21

Small Water Pepper Persicaria minor, left: in its typical appearance in the New Forest yesterday, right: what I think is the same species on Staines Moor on Thursday but not 100% sure as they look quite different - thoughts welcome! #WildflowerHour #WildflowerID wildflowerhour

Moira O'Donnell 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 We miss you! Don't click on the RHS 'Trending' stuff, and use hashtags. Works for me... Also, shout if you'd like to ID some oak galls that received complete indifference form #WildFlowerID. .

#WildFlowerHour #WildflowerID I hope oak trees aren't too big for this hashtag, but can anyone help ID these oak galls? Is the spiky one an Oak knopper? Is the sphere with exit hole an Oak marble? Importantly, can I make ink out of both? TIA. bbowt.org.uk/blog/jenny-mcc…

Hi #wildflower folks - I have an unusual request - does anyone have any idea what this plant on the right of the detail pic is? We've got everything else - all Marian plants as this, as you see, is a nativity #WildflowerID - assuming an English wildflower!

I think this is Bupleurum fruiticosum growing in a hedge in Malvern. Obviously of garden origin as it was on a town street Nice plant. Insects were living it, particularly wasps #WildflowerID BSBI: Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland Worcs Wildlife Trust National Plant Monitoring Scheme Plantlife

#WildflowerID BSBI: Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland Hi, Twitter folk! Do the botanists agree with ChatGPT? It reckons this recent photo of a clifftop plant in Alderney is Jasione montana, commonly known as Sheep’s-bit or Sheep's-bit Scabious...

For the #GrassChallenge #WildflowerHour I saw this beautiful Marbled White butterfly on a white grass, is it Yorkshire Fog? #WildflowerID
