In the vast garden of nature, amidst a sea of green grass, there lies an unwelcome intruder - the weed. Just like Oxford ragwort (Senecio squalidus), this widespread naturalized pest has found its way into our lawns, stubbornly refusing to be uprooted. But fear not. With our handy guide, we shall embark on a journey to extract these unwanted guests from our precious turf. As we delve deeper into this botanical battle, we stumble upon a mesmerizing sight - wild poppies dancing in the gentle breeze. Picture No. 11671273 captures their vibrant beauty as they paint the landscape with hues of crimson and gold. And just beside them stands the resilient dandelion flowers and seed-heads, resembling delicate "clocks" waiting for time's embrace. Venturing further afield brings us face-to-face with Mount Shasta's majestic presence. Towering over all flora and fauna, it reminds us that even amongst weeds, grandeur can be found. In April Faringdon Oxon UK, red poppies bloom in abundance; their scarlet petals creating an enchanting tapestry against the backdrop of rolling fields and ripening barley. But they are not confined to land alone; marine plants also join this unruly club. Leaves and seaweed intertwine beneath azure waters while coral reefs provide sanctuary for countless species below the surface. Returning to dry land once more reveals another intriguing mix: corn poppy (Papaver rhoeas), cornflower, corncockle, corn marigold, and corn chamomile - flowering together as if celebrating their shared status as mixed arable weeds. Their resilience is admirable; thriving amidst cultivated crops yet deemed undesirable by human hands. And finally. . a creature emerges from underwater depths - Dugong AU 1736 Dugong dugon © D.
