....... in July, and why are most of the flowers I am now finding green? Fat hen is doing its best in the sand but even better in the garden as a weed.
Why ` fat hen` I don't know but I think it used to be eaten as a green vegetable.
The sea beet is a robust plant growing in the sand which, I presume, has a large taproot.
The butterflies are now running out of flowers on the lower levels and are mainly large whites. The more colourful have gone higher up the cliff out of my reach.

Why does Mayweed flower in July?
I can only assume because it was not named after the month.
Like Gathering Nuts in May is not a reference to nuts such as hazlenuts etc.
