Good Evening All,

Walking near

a local river - I came across a  wildflower that I've never seen before.

Anyone have any idea as to what it is please?

    Hi Edd,

    Thank you so much - we have been checking all the wildflower sites! There were only 2 or 3 plants close to a tidal river which often floods.

    I did have a similar species, tragopogon pratensis, next to my pond until the slugs decided otherwise.

    It is indeed!

     Last thing I expected to see on a flood plain. Hopefully the seed will spread and there will be more next year.
