    We spotted these flowers on the bog road the other day and wondered if anyone knew what they are called. Also would it be possible to transplant them to the garden, we live in the bog, practically.

    it looks like lousewort (Pedicularis sp)
    I think it's illegal to dig up wild plants, it's the wrong thing to do regardless.
    There's absolutely no point digging up this one anyway as it's a parasitic plant and will not survive without its host.
