Pastinaca sativa
A tall, strong smelling, hairy plant with a ridged stem. Oval toothed leaves with yellow umbrella shaped flowers.
Trifolium repens
Often found in parks, banks and lawns – any type of grassland habitat – white clover is the commonest of the clovers.
This perky pink wildflower has been a favourite of gardeners since the 16th century. However, there is nothing to match seeing it in its natural habitat: atop dramatic coastal cliffs or astride craggy islands.
