Any ideas? Upper moorlands, ignore the thistles and look at the ferny type leaf up the back there. Please let it be some ultra rare £1m flower so I can retire.......
Thankyou, that's interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardamine_pratensis Supposedly named so as it flowers with the arrival of the Cuckoo. Unless it was flowering 4 weeks ago that's incorrect. Part of the Brassica family.
It was common in the damp meadows of my Suffolk childhood … not so common now as more meadows are treated with fertilisers and herbicides … but not rare … sorry to disappoint… you’ll have to keep working.
I’d just point out that this thread is for close up images of plants more for their aesthetic interest rather than identification. 😊

Those are a riot of colour @rowlandscastle444 very nice indeed.
Mine have suddenly tripled this year, the paler pink are just starting to open now.
Apologies all, for going off topic a bit!
