Hi all, Finally got round to looking at plants I snapped last summer but can't identify. www.mediafire.com/folder/hkka0kb3b3bwx/I refer below to the last 3 digits of the filename (they're not necessarily in this order in the folder linked above). Apart from 298, taken on the cliffs at Sewerby, N Yorks, in May, all the photos were taken on or near the coast in Pembrokeshire in June 883 Not a clue 090/91 Flowers too immature for me. Hemp agrimony? 096 No idea, pink-like leaves? Too late for the flowers here. 120/121 Slender St john's-wort? 141 Albino Ivy-leaved toadflax? 161/162 Round-leaved water crowfoot? 163 Yellow Loosestrife? 298 Colorado Spruce? Thanks, Ian

Probably would have been easier if you'd numbered the plants 1 to 6 or however many there are.
In general order
Field Horsetail cones. Hemp Agrimony Greater Stitchwort in fruit ? not sure Slender St. John's-wort Ivy-leaved Speedwell Water-crowfoots are tricky, but maybe Ranunculus peltatus The non-native, but frequently naturalised Dotted Loosestrife

Many thanks. I'll check them out.

Hi again, I hesitate to ask, but is the ID of ivy-leaved Speedwell correct. A double check here: www.british-wild-flowers.co.uk/T-Flowers/Toadflax,%20Ivy-leaved.htm shows the same plant and also some white flowers. I was really querying how common the white flower is, apparently quite so. Ian

The umbellifer 112 appears to be Alexanders.

Thanks, p,
I thought I'd moved that one to the second batch so didn't comment. References I have of Alexanders sugest a similar leaf shape but deeper veins and more serrated leaf edges, but I suppose that could be natural variation?

The leaves don't look typical but I can't think of another umbellifer with similar leaves and in this case the important feature is the fruits which are quite distinctive.
