Dog's Mercury male flowers opening now in Bluntswood and Paiges Meadow Nature reserve.

Despite the freezing weather, Dog's Mercury male flowers are beginning to open now.

The sexes are on separate plants.  They are all males in these photo's.

These pictures were taken in Bluntswood, Haywards Heath, which would be an even more delightful place if irresponsible dog owners were to keep their dogs on leads and pick up their excrement.
