White Flowers Northumberland
I found these White Flowers on grassland in Northumberland about 5-6 groups , despite them looking quite distinctive I can't find them using my usual method of first my book of flowers by colour -no, then going through my other books page by page-no,not very scientific I know probably the reason I can never find I.D.'s.
Garden escape ? oops ! photos would probably help
Thanks in Advance
Brian

Hi there,

It's Common Star-of-Bethlehem (Ornithogalum umbellatum) I believe. Not native but still a good find.

Mike.

Yup, Common Star-of-Bethlehem. It's an introduction that seems to be spreading. Nice though.
