Did you have any luck identifying those flowers, was it Firethorn? I think elder flowers look similar to the flowers on the Firethorn however the Firethorn is rather unpleasant smelling unlike the elder.
Hi Simon, yes I'm also a bit dubious about the middle class foraging movement. Though I do pick raspberries and blackberries in season and have occasionally foraged mushrooms.
The elder flowers are very pretty. Lovely images. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful aren't they! Some lovely cordial to be had there, although to be honest I'm a bit dubious about the new middle class foraging movement

ReplyDeleteIan, it's elder, definitely
My fault I got my wires crossed, it was another blogger who was trying to identify something similar to elder.
