Help identifying wildflowers please

F.R. · 18-07-2015 10:07pm #1

I planted one of those wildflower mixes and while I have been able to identify most as they have flowered I have drawn a blank with these, any help greatly appreciated.

1 Looks a bit like toadflax but that's as far as I got

I think they are (open to correction!)

1 looks a bit like toadflax but would need to see leaves

3 forget-me-not

4 stocks - Matthiola

5 cow parsley

6 Nigella - love-in-a-mist

Thanks for the help

Here's a picture of the leaves from the possible toadflax

6 is not Nigella as I have that growing elsewhere in my little patch

I was a bit puzzled by the toadflax as I was thinking of this one http://www.wildflowersofireland.net/plant_detail.php?id_flower=287&wildflower=Toadflax,%20Ivy-leaved , I did not realise there were two entirely different plants called toadflax.

That last one, what is the yellow bit, is it a flower or a seadhead or similar? The fringe of leaves looks very much like nigella.

I'm not sure what that is going to develop into as it has been like that for almost a week. I think if it does develop into flowers they will be tiny.

Thanks for your help.

Could this be your Nigella-like flower?

I don't think they're Irish wild flowers...

Anyway.

1 is Toadflax alright

2 is a mystery

3 I think is an Anchusa variety

4 is Stock, maybe scrawny Virginia or Night Scented

5 looks very like the flower on Coriander

6 could be Dill in bud

This is what 6 is looking like at the moment, whatever it is, it is very slow to develop

Fennel, I think, or Dill, they are very similar.

Someone figure out what that second one is, please? It looks rather like a dogwood seedling in the second pic - but the flowers are 5 petal and dogwood is 4, and anyway it would not be flowering that young. Its aggravating me now!

Juvenile Buckwheat?

Best guess so far I think!
