Toothwort and lungwort

Last week we were admiring the tree lungwort at Uig. We’re back in Shropshire, which isn’t a temperate rain forest, but beside the lane around Willey, there’s a more colourful plant, unrelated but also known as lungwort. Further back along the lane, we’ve spotted some toothwort, a curious parasitic plant. It’s not pretty!
The weather down here has been drier recently – the fields and lane are not quite so soggy as they were just a couple of weeks ago. Not complaining!
