Some more flowers at Filnore

 This is Betony, a close relative of hedge woundwort.  It was widely used as a medicinal herb by monks in the middle ages. 

Here are some Greater Willowherb flowers with some Wild Clematis behind.

And here is a closer look at the pretty but understated flowers of Wild Clematis, also known as Traveller's Joy or Old Man's Beard.

And then there is this.  Not sure what it is, though it's a bit like a form of purple loosestrife.  I think it must be a garden escape that found its way to Filnore.  Very pretty anyway.
