Thank you :) Always happy to share the flora & fauna!
Very interesting family introduction..Thanks for sharing..
More of a summer plant (atleast here in Norway). We don't really have a rainy season similar to that of warmer countries. Wish it was a little bit less rainy now though..!
Are they grow in moist and rainy season..?
Nope, but thanks! Think I found it.. I had the name in the back of my head! Just had to dig it out. Wolf's bane.
Impatiens..?
