We have loads growing around here in Pembs. Don't dig the roots till the leaves have died off.

It worked this time - don't know why not the first time. 1. Horseradish, as already confirmed. 2. One of the Chenopodiaceae, possibly Sea Beet, Chenopodium maritima, but could be one of the Atriplex sp. They're a difficult group, I find. 3. Annual Sea-blite, Sueda maritima, as you suggest, and another Chenopodiaceae, as it happens. Frankenia, which you also wonder about, has much smaller leaves and is, I think, confined to the east and south coasts of England. -- Malcolm |

Now you've pointed me in the right direction I think it's probably Sea-Purslane; those photos I've found online for Beta (vulgaris) maritima have differently shaped leaves. >3.

BTW, there's 20 set of pics, not 3, in case you've missed this as a >result of whatever the connection problems were. Have patience! I'm a busy man :-) I'll try and have a go at some of them next week. I did glance at your "Silene pratensis?" and noted your reference to Stace. I've got the second edition of Stace in which it is called Silene latifolia, White Campion, (Keble Martin calls is S.alba!), and while Stace says that male flowers have 10 veins, he also says that female flowers have 20. Your "Silene?" is, I think, Silene vulgaris, Bladder Campion. The alternative would be S.uniflora (formerly maritima), Sea Campion, but it isn't quite right. Unfortunately, good though your photographs are, there are key characters not shown, for example how many flowers on a stem and how the flowering stem is shaped. The leaves in the third photograph of this set are not a Silene at all and are obviously included merely to confuse :-)) -- Malcolm |
