By one of those happy accidents which sometimes occurs in gardening, I planted my gentians near a group of the tiny pink autumn Cyclamen purpurascens, which flowers at exactly the same time. #gardening

This means that if you have a chalky soil you had better give up the idea of growing these gentians unless you are prepared to dig out a large deep hole and fill it entirely with leaf-mould. I planted mine in pure leaf-mould and sand without any peat and they seem very happy.

Hello Bsky🌈☀️
Today’s flower arrangement.
The lilies called "Siberia" are still buds, and I think the double lilies are called "Petronella”. Also, some carnations, a few types of gerberas, and gentians.

Have a good day 😊❣️

It’s been a long Indian summer
and the hips are rotting on the beach rose.

I can almost taste their sour skins –
red balls of seeds glistening…

Chiltern gentians this week at The Holies, Streatley (W. Berks) for #wildflowerhour. Pictures 2 & 3 are of the same plant 2 days apart, the 1st showing the flowers largely closed in dullish, breezy conditions and the 2nd showing (some) flowers fully open in bright sunshine.

RARE STUNNER: Native Pine Barren gentians are blooming in the #NewJersey #Pinelands, much to the delight of hoverflies, bees, butterflies and other pollinators. Have you seen this gorgeous species? 💙 🌿 🌎

Friday First’s! Something catches my eye over there. At first I thought Bottle Gentians, but their profile looks different. On closer inspection, it is a group of Downy Gentians. I love their soft, blueish/purple color. #wildflowers #flowers #northdakota #prairie #grasslands

Hunted for Marsh Gentians today. Was happy to find them flowering despite the dry summer. Also there were plentiful Devil's Bit Scabious. I like Scabious. Also a plant I've come across a few times now, it looks a little like a Hardhead/Knapweed but isn't. I think it is Saw-wort. Corrections?

Closed Bottle Gentians (Gentiana clausa) have slits at the top. Only bumblebees are strong enough to break in to get the good stuff.

Please don't pick/dig them. This population in a popular park is down to one last individual, hiding under the alders.
