For #wildflowerhour it’s Fox-and-cubs in a local churchyard from me. Also known as devil’s paint brush, grim-the-collier and orange hawkweed.

And a few more from Worcestershire's lanesides: yellow Groundsel and Red Deadnettle, then Bittercress (tiny white flowers, in our garden I'm sure it goes to seed *before* flowering 😉 ) and bright yellow-green Spurge. Finally, a tall Hawkweed (I think.) #wildflowerhour

Lots of wildflowers still in bloom around Cambridge this week. It feels like #TheWinter10 is very close!
Great to see the Lesser Calamint has had a November revival, and also nice to find some Henbit Dead-nettle.

Devil’s Bit Scabious? Mouse-Eared Hawkweed? Giant Hogweed?

#WildflowerHour This beautiful bouquet caught my eye under a hedge behind some park railings. Apparenlty a form of Hawkweed, though not sure which.

And again.
This time it would be a different conifer association, and the caps are closer to as described. Last time they were more "usually" depressed than "occasionally" but this time is less than half. They seem to like the same spots that hawkweeds like on lawns.
Several shiny, brown capped, white stemmed mushrooms, about half of those visible are picked and on their sides. Two of the clearly visible caps are depressed/concave, the other 5 are convex. A couple that were gill side up were also concave but you can't see those. There are also two whose caps are obscured by grass on the left. The gills are typical of a waxcap, white, waxy, and curved. They're growing in a mossy area with lots of hawkweed.

A Small Copper Butterfly seen on the coast path on the Lizard, Cornwall last week. #Butterflies @savebutterflies.bsky.social
A Small Copper (orange butterfly with black spots) on a yellow flower, probably a Hawkweed of some sort, with a few spines of a bit of Gorse in front.

When my wife drove from near Brechin to Aberdeen, I took a grid ref at roughly 1 minute intervals as we drove past Danish scurvygrass. The result is a sequence of tetrads on the BSBI map. Main roads elsewhere are highlighted too. The same could be done for autumn hawkweed amongst other species.

TY @pennyjs.bsky.social for sharing this stunning take and for the #ALText; We're #strongerTogether due to #inclusion:)
I felt the need to add #pink and #orange #flowersOfBluesky: #carnation and #hawkweed for #bloomscrolling.

Some carnation blooms, pink with red accents and purple stamens, are visible. At the top left-hand corner of the picture is a splash of yellow caused by a Californian poppy petal; at the bottom right-hand corner is a splash of green. The picture is cropped but not further edited. I edited the image very slightly by increasing the saturation a little. Six clearly visible orange-red wolf’s-bane flowers, three wilted flowers and a few buds lie amongst shards of black glass. Parts of the camera and tripod are reflected in the shards, along with a glass cylinder without a lid and a transparent shard of glass, which I needed because the cylinder’s diameter is too large for the camera.

Sometimes I have a little baggie of seeds in my pocket, e.g. White Woodland Aster and Canada Hawkweed. Sometimes I use what is nearby. I always try to use local ecotype seeds. Maple leaf Viburnum seeds shouldn't be allowed to dry out too much btw.

Species seen on the east coast this week, in the vicinity of Great Yarmouth. Great to see so much Sheep's-bit, Umbellate Hawkweed and Grey Hair-grass, with Mossy Stonectop enjoying trampled dune paths and Sea-rocket still flowering on the foreshore

Family commitments have left me with little time to spend in nature this week. Fortunately, my garden is still full of beautiful wildflowers, such as this Autumn Hawkweed (Hieracium sabaudum), a self-seeded beauty that is blooming for the second time this year #WildflowerHour

Just leave me here with the fall leaves.

Yellow tulip poplar leaf with orange tinges and brown speckles on a background of gray creek rock and assorted other leaves. Partially shadowed red maple leaf on a background of hairy mouse-ear hawkweed leaves. Yellow chestnut oak leaf with orange edges and green interior regions on a background of grass and small leaves.

It was glorious weather to enjoy a breathtaking walk along the cliff tops to Old Harry Rocks, Purbeck today.

This Hawkweed was perched right on the cliff edge peeping over at the sparkling blue sea below.
