I am very concerned about the Camden Highline and what it will do to the wildflowers and wildlife along the railway line here in Camden. If you're reading this before June 11th 2022, please object at the planning application, 2022/2019/P at the Camden website. I'm sorry but direct links to the application are difficult.
end of May 2022, railway line, lots of red valerian at this time of year
bird cherry
lots of yellow melilot, both on the railway side of the railings
and inside the railings
the only place I've seen yellow melilot is along the railway line here and future along it at Camden Road station
flowers and lots of buds
hoary mustard grows very happily local to me, near the railway line
the fruits are appressed close along the stem, only 1 of two brassicas that are, the other being hedge mustard
there's a bee on this one
the basal rosette leaves are very distinctive and often persist
hawkweed oxtongue
narrow-leaved ragwort, in bud
