Yellow Rocket Wildflowers Seen While Walking the Bailly Chellberg - Little Calumet Loop (Indiana Dunes National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: While walking one of the trails systems in Indiana Dunes National Park. I came across this small meadow of Yellow Rocket wildflowers and got down low, using LiveView with my Nikon SLR camera to compose this image. I later did some post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation while playing around as I learned how to work with DxO PhotoLab 4.

Hedgerow and Woodland Plants This Week

magnificent common hawthorn in bloom

All spotted on one walk from our own front gate to the bluebell woods

clouds of frothy cow parsley flowers

young yellow and white deadnettles

oxeye daisy

red campion

euphorbia

ajuga (bugle weed)

barbarea vulgaris (yellow rocket)

early purple orchid

yellow broom

wild garlic flowering - also below with a bluebell and single lonely yellow celandine

The bluebells are really over now, but I did find a few patches of stragglers. We were lucky enough to find some good patches of wild garlic, which I fear will be the last of the year and a real treasure - we heard a Cuckoo calling.

You have to strain to listen on full volume, around 34 seconds in.

Inktober Day 7 - Common Winter Cress (Barbarea vulgaris)

The day we saw this one in class, it was really cold outside. We also got to identify a ton of dandelion look-alikes, including coltsfoot. And we saw, no joke, 20 copperheads sunning on a rock to keep warm.

Barbarea vulgaris, “Bittercress” or “Yellow rocketcress” 

[regnum-plantae]

Barbarea vulgaris, Brassicaceae

A cloud of bright yellow bittercress, bearing all the telltale signs of the mustard family, makes me almost believe it’s sunny even on a very gray day. This Eurosiberian perennial is well-known and used to be often cultivated in gardens, both for its ornamental value and as it looses its medicinal properties when dried, so it’s best used fresh. The flower stalks and the leaves, available until early winter, are edible, but shouldn’t be consumed in large quantities. 

The poulticed leaves have been historically used to treat wounds and burns, so the genus was named after Saint Barbara, supposed to look after people working with artillery and explosives. Rich in vitamin C, like those of many other Brassicaceae, they have also been used to fight off scurvy. Once again, a plant noted for being a good source of pollen and nectar thus being very attractive to wildlife.

Bubbles, pastel and petals (for sarad!)?

Cass I love you so much omg

Bubbles - what color(s) best describes your current vibes?

Ngl probably something like dark blue to purple at this moment, but generally I like to think that I'm a person that gives off pale pink/green/light blue vibes

(Idek if that's the question or I just went into the other direction lmao pretend this made sense)

Pastel - what is your favorite aesthetic(s)?

I really like cottagecore and angelcore, there was that one aesthetic moodboard floating around with the different ballets of Tchaikovsky that I cannot find rn but the Sugar Plum Fairy one was my absolute favourite. So long story short soft and light aesthetics.

Petals - favorite flower(s)?

Forget-me-nots for the ground, lantana for bushes and apple blossoms for trees :)

(I have no idea what the english name for it is so you're gonna have the latin one: sarad loves to use barbarea vulgaris for flower crowns)

Barbarea orthoceras (American Yellowrocket)

This is probably an American Yellowrocket, which, as the name implies, is native to North America. However it might be Barbarea vulgaris, which is from Southern Africa and Central Asia and another proud member of the International Invasive Weed Association (just ask the folks in New Zealand). Both of these plants grow in our area. The flowers are identical but they have slight differences in foliage. The local bumble bees are promiscuous and visit both types without discrimination.
