Sunday 11 August

Sunny morning so we had our walk in the valley

Had a look at theTomato - Solanum lycopersicon growing in the nick of the pavement, tomatoes on but the plant looks weary possibly been sprayed by the local kill brigade.

When we got home we decided to set off for Knott End, Meg enjoys the beach and chasing the sea gulls. 

Along the wall we find plants that appear different in the coastal area, more robust, stronger so the sea air must agree with them.

Early Goldenrod - Solidago gigantea

 Soapwort - Saponaria officinallis

Dry & Mild

 Big Lodge view

Pink flowered Bramble - Rubus fruticosus they are common in Lancashire. 

 Field Rose - Rosa arvensis

 Raspberry - Rubus idaeus had a good crop this year.

 Tomato - Lycopersicon esculentum found growing in a pavement nick, it won't get much to grow much more - I have no doubt it will meet with the weed killer or just pulled.

Flowers and a few tiny fruits on it.
