Parnassia palustris

31 Aug 2019 • Isn’t it just the prettiest little thing 💚

It's beautiful 💗💚

Apparently if it hadn’t been blowing a hooley I might have noticed that it smelled of honey 🍯@pelly

Very pretty! Beautiful picture 😊💕

Thanks Terri 😊 I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before but will look out for it now 🌸 @terrimclaughlin

Ooooh 😍

That's pretty 💗

31 Aug 2019 • I spotted this gorgeous #wildflower out walking today. I haven’t identified it yet. Any ideas?

Well I never! It’s Grass of Parnassus and is apparently the county flower of Cumberland and appears on its flag #Parnassia-palustris

It makes you wonder what we don't know about our own county Jacqueline, I've just looked up mine and apparently it the Common Dogtooth Violet 👍💜

It’s interesting isn’t it. Kendal is in what was Westmorland and the flag has a golden apple tree on it. Wishful thinking I’d say 🤣 @pelly

It’s a beautiful wildflower

It really is Sharon. Just lovely 💚@sharonhayden

What a gorgeous little bloom 💕 just looked ours up and it says ‘Common Poppy’ sounds about right 😆 in fact I think I’ve met her 🤔🤣

Good Heavens, I’d forgotten about Westmorland!! 😱😂

🤣🤣 I bet she’s lovely 😊 @rachelbrooks

Ours is a Heather I didn't even realise there was a county flower, learn something new everyday on here, yours is much prettier

You do don’t you. It’s a real sweetie isn’t it Carol 😊 @carolgs

Amazing flower!
