Dear Readers, some great results this week – Fran and Bobby Freelove and Claire are in joint first place with 15/15, with Anne having 13/15 (and I suspect that this was due to mixing up a C and an L rather than any actual misidentification :-)). Well done all of you, and let’s see what I have in store for tomorrow….

UPDATE: Due to a combination of technical issues and author ineptitude, FEARN, Sharon and Rachael’s answers weren’t marked – FEARN and Rachael both got 15/15, and Sharon got 11/15, though I’m not sure if her answers got truncated somewhere along the line! Well done everybody, this wasn’t easy…..

1) H) Nigella/Love-in-a-mist (Nigella damascena)

2). F) Field Poppy (Papaver rhoeas)

3) K) Creeping Buttercup (Ranunculus repens)

4) J) Lucerne/Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) )

5)C) Meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria)

6)L) Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica)

7)D) Honesty (Lunaria annua)

8) E) Rosebay Willowherb (Chamaenerion angustifolium)

9) G) Shepherd’s Purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris)

10) M) Curled Dock (Rumex crispus)

11) A) Wild Carrot (Daucus carrota)

12) O) Himalayan Balsam (Impatiens glandulifera)

13) I) Ribwort Plantain (Plantago lanceolata)

      Hi Mal, this is so weird! I checked all the comments on Friday and didn’t see you, Sharon or Rachael, but I shall mark you all in the morning, I’m sure congratulations are in order all round. I think WordPress is doing stuff deliberately to annoy me….
