Autumn Lady's tresses South Gower


Autumn Lady’s tresses – Spiranthes Spiralis are now flowering on the South Gower coast. They are growing everywhere where the grass has been grazed by sheep and we saw a great number of them between Fall Bay and Thurba bay on Sunday 13th August.

Also seen were Boletus Luridus which on the gower coast is associated with rockroses. All the  specimens seen had dried up unfortunately.

Lovely images Sylvie. Last weekend we walked along East Cliff and I was amazed at the abundance of Spiranthes too.
