Linaria viscosa

in #photography • 6 years ago

I cannot find much info about this plant online. What I found is that it is native to Iberian Peninsula and it is an unprotected weed. I also found that other types of Linaria bloom with gorgeous purple flowers or have darker spots.

I saw another yellow type (Linaria polygalifolia) on the beach blooming with bigger, stripy blooms. Quite a nice plant for a weed. Wouldn't mind having it in a garden among other small blooms.

And of course what would a flower shot be without a bug on it...

            I find most of these little weeds have flowers just as nice as the "official" flowers... using a macro lens and getting in close proves the point!

              That is true! Just because it grows in a while and is called a weed doesn't mean it is not pretty. I'd grow lots of them if I could :D
