Too late for the sea of pink

Autumn is not the time for Sea Trift. They are summer flowers. They handle heat an sun. So when I went to look for some autumn flowers, there was no much left (from this one anyway). Only some pretty, round #DryStuff

Armeria maritima

Tere are many types with in different colour around. Many have very short stems and stay closer to th ground.
This is a typical coastline plant that grows on poor soil and often very rocky terrain.

What was it doing on th middle of Poland hundred km from any coast? It looks pretty happy where I found it and it is not the first time I saw it in that area. I just wonder if it came on its own (or some birds brought the seeds) all the way and like it, or it it is a version of one that someone had in a garden.

I do remember having them year ago. Shorter and darker pink too. With time it maybe lost this look and got closer to the wild one again...

Ok, I lied a tiny little bit :p
There were a couple still in bloom left. Not a showy as hey can be, but it will give you an idea how pretty they are.

Seems they would be excellent for dried flower arrangements. I think they are lovely.

this flower is often found in mountainous areas, there are various kinds of plants, we often also pick it when we go to the mountains because the flower grows wild. thanks, nice photo

Don’t take it personally 😉 Sometimes it takes me many attempts before I can grow some plants successfully. Some just don’t wanna live😂

Hello dear friend @ewkaw good day
I love their autumn look, although I must admit that they are much more beautiful with their colorful flowers.
It's great how birds can distribute seeds in places that these plant species have never been.
Have a happy and prosperous week

I was researching on the web, and I was able to see how beautiful they are, there is even a variety that was discovered in the south of my country Argentina
