Some delicate looking lilac-coloured wild #Cyclamen popped up at the bottom of the garden yesterday. It looks like it's a spring flower, but is actually an autumn/winter one, flowering from late August to December in the UK #WildflowerHour #FavouritePlant #BloomScrolling #Flowers #Autumn

In SW Ireland in August and this Sea Spleenwort was my #FavouritePlant of 2026 which I stumbled across on a stone culvert on Bray Head, Valentia Island
Not in a sea cave or on a salt sprayed cliff which made it more unexpected and a wow factor
