Not the best but all I can access at the moment.

St Johns Wort (and Bumble Bee).

More when I can get at the other 'pooter.

Can anyone tell me what these are ?  Growing alongside the canal in Edinburgh.  I've gone through both my flower identification books but failed to find a match.  They're about 30-60cm high.

Feanor, lovely pictures.  I think they must be a form of cuckoo pint, or lords and ladies.

After some googling, I've discovered it's "Lysichiton americanus", the American Skunk Cabbage!
A rather un-appealing name for a fairly spectacular plant.

Southern Marsh orchid in our meadows

Like David, we have had some unusual coloured bluebells, but unlike David, these are English bluebells - colour anomalies are much more common in Spanish and hybrid bluebells.

Could anyone tell me what this is? I think it is purple toadflax but the pictures I find online look different. Found on sand dunes. (Could be a dune slack rather than dune proper.)

Went out for a very quick play with my camera earlier, seeing as I haven't even used it for about 18 months!

Didn't take many pictures and the ones I did take weren't that great, but this one turned out OK:
