Went for a roll* down to Cosmeston Lakes and spotted these wildflowers along the way.

  1. Dactylorhiza fuchsii - the common spotted orchid.
  2. Vicia cracca - tufted vetch, pea family.
  3. Stachys sylvatica - hedge woundwort, mint family.
  4. Iris foetidissima - stinking iris, named coz if crushed it can smell bad!

*roll - with my mobility scooter

Tufted vetch, a flower with pinky-purple tube shapes that turn up into a hood at the end and grow in dense clusters along one side of the flower spike.
Hedge woundwort - a nettle-like plant with tall burgundy-magenta flowering spikes with widely-spaced whorls of flowers.
