I saw a lot of rosettes yesterday, some before the flowers grew but some with flowers where the rosette was still there.
Shepherd's purse, quite variable. Sometimes there's no rosette at all when it blooms but this one has a full rosette and flowers in the centre.

I saw a lot of hoary mustard, some just rosettes and some with flowers and rosettes and some with flowers but no rosette.
These hoary mustard have both the rosette and flowers.



these are just the rosettes

I saw a few bristly ox-tongue, some flowers with bees. The leaves have those distinctive blisters.
