Die rote Lichtnelke bringt auch in Island kräftige Farbtupfer in die Landschaft. Sie wächst an feuchten, sonnigen Standorten und ist – obwohl sie ursprünglich nicht zur heimischen Flora gehört – längst ein Blickfang entlang von Wegen und Wiesen auf der Insel.

Part of the garden by the side of the house. Used to be a bare, utilitarian strip with only the tree, shrubs and hedging. I then transformed it into something more appealing over the course of three or four years. Wildflower mounds towards the back.
In the centre of the photograph, the bigger of our two Angelica archangelica (Garden angelica).
They are biennials but, curiously, in their third (!) year.

The light in this photograph is dappled sunlight.
In the foreground on the right, part of a white painted, rusty metal garden bench. Behind it, going across, a border with perennials and ornamental grasses, not yet as full as it will get later in the year.
Roughly in the middle distance, from the left, a tall Angelica with a large flower head that is yet to open. Next to it the lower section of a larger tree and a stone birdbath.
Behind all this on the right are wildflower mounds, with flowering Red campion just about visible.
The rest of the background are shrubs and hedging, partly in the shade.

By chance I found this beautiful flower in my collection and then discovered that it’s from June last year. So a fitting addition for #floralfriday I guess.

More gardening with wildflowers. Cow parsley, Buttercup and Green alkanet cover an overgrown path in the garden. Faint in the background Red campion.

I hear that this year’s latest, newest thing at Chelsea Flower Show is the use of wildflowers, a.k.a. weeds.
Not exactly new. I have been doing it for years because of the huge environmental benefits.
See photo description for more about the photo.

Photo shows the pink flowers of Red campion (Silene dioica) flowering on one of my three wildflower (weed) mounds. The yellow flowers blurry in the background are Greater celandine (Chelidonium majus).

Red Campion near the pond in my back garden, Brighton, Sussex UK.

I usually follow back, and really appreciate and often follow boosters & likers.

One of my favourite wild flowers is Red Campion. I’ve taken inspiration from some Red Campion flowers, which have a variety of shades of pink, and have stretched that theme to pinks, purples and purplish-blue to make up a sash.

This is a bow which is made up of flowers.  The flowers are based on a Red Campion flower.  However, I have changed the colours to be a mix of pinks, blues, and purples.
