Rainy roof flowers

Jump to Comments

These amazing gutter flowers make me happy :-) Anyone know what they are? I thought they were foxgloves at first, but on closer inspection they look like something approaching a snapdragon. It seems very poetic, to see beauty striving through neglect, even in somewhere proper skanky like Thatched House.

  • I saw something nearly identical to this (it was even raining that day too)on the train from Victoria to Peckham. I also thought they were foxgloves at first. I’ve seen these flowers in the Walthamstow Marsh. I don’t know what they are called but I am deteremined to find out.

    I’m glad you got this pic because now I can show people instead of trying to explain it to them.

  • Ooh, let me know if you find out!
