A weed. Summarily uprooted from a gravel path - then I realised this familiar plant was not actually one I knew the name of…
Not actually very good photos but just to show anthers dehiscing "live". First picture taken at 11: 34:29.7 and then the next at 11:34:31.1. The process was causing little puffs of pollen under the light but I failed to get a photograph of one. |
