Field Scabious ~ Knautia arvensis, found on the bank of the River Dodder. Blue-lilac flowers (30-40mm) which are borne on branched, wiry, purple-spotted stems. The outer flowers are larger than the inner ones and the stamens add to the beauty of the plant by standing upright, making the flower look like a blue pin-cushion. The lower leaves are pinnately lobed, the upper being smaller and less divided. This is a native plant belonging to the family Dipsacaceae. Susan
