This pink one is so pretty but have no idea what it is. I hope it's not another vetch!!

Hi TP,
The first one, with the pink flowers, is London Pride -- good to eat and here is our entry for it: https://www.thetortoisetable.org.uk/pla ... oyXtFTMI2E

Re the second one -- yellow flower -- I thought it looked like Cat's Ear, but looking at the leaves I don't think it is. There are so many plants that have similar flowers, I'm going to ask Lin to have a look and see what she thinks. It's really familiar to me but I can't place it.

Hi TP.
The yellow flowered one could be Mouse Ear Hawkweed (especially if it is hairy) or one of the many hawkweeds as some are seen here. https://www.thetortoisetable.org.uk/pla ... ozeoC_TWfB
It is a feed though so sticking with the ‘in moderation’ rule it will be fine.
