Field Gromwell



Poppit sand dunes are a always a delight (if one can disregard the beer and coke tins and dog poo). This plant appears every year and has always foiled my attempts at identification. Now I've nailed it. 'A common arable weed'. I suspect that on arable land it is no longer common, but has been zapped by herbicides.
