Markus Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 On Friday, 4th of May Matthias and I visited together with Andreas Fleischmann a site of Pinguicula vulgaris in Landsberg, Bavaria. The first site was a damp meadow in a forest. The subsoil exists of tuff covered with lime gravel. Leakage water keeps the meadow more or less wet depending on the level of the groundwater. Flowering time of P. vulgaris usually starts in mid to end of May but we hoped to see some specimen in flower by this time because of the unusual warm and sunny spring in Germany. Overview of the meadow with numerous flowering primoses. Primula farinosa and Lotus uliginosus Left: Potentilla erecta, right: Polygala armarella... ... the first plants of P. vulgaris in flower Flowering plant – difficult to find between the grass P. vulgaris growing next to Primula farinosa Group of plants protected by the short grasses Best regards Markus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
