The great willowherb has larger flowers than the
broad-leaved
willowherb. They are pink/purple with a prominent
four-lobed, white stigma. The flowers are up to 2 cms
diameter. The flowers are followed by hairy seed pods
which open to release fluffy seeds when ripe.
The stems are covered in small hairs. The leaves are long,
narrow and serrated.
This flower thrives in wet conditions, by streams, ponds
and marshland. |
