#Lousewort

2023-01-01

@bitheolaidhe excellent blog Jake. And thanks for boosting @MarkusWagner I'm trying to rehabilitating rank #grassland into a mini #meadow like state. Have transplanted common #Lousewort and sown coastal and near coast #YellowRattle, also sowed #eyebright and #RedBartsia. Will let you know how I get on. Coastal rattle small, near coastal tall. Interesting to see if there is a height difference when they germinate. 1/2

The transplanted #DevilsBitScabious and #Lousewort #Wildflowers are still doing OK. They have shrunk with the cold weather or rather grass has taking a headstart.

I intend to mow again in the spring to restore more light to the soil with the hope of helping more germination of the seed I spread.

(Some #spearwort and #sedge there too.)

@richardev
Thanks, yes I'm excited to see what germinated. I expect not all will flower 1st year.
#YellowRattle & #Sneezewort were two target plants I had to travel to the coast to get. The rest were relatively near. Apart from sowing 2 handfuls of rattle I transplanted 3 #Lousewort plants & sowed #RedBartsia as hemi parasites.
I use forest tracks mostly as come September all earmarked hedge seed source was flailed. Maybe your Tufted vetch will come in time they say sanding vetch seed may help
