Thank you all for you...ShySongbird , Rob and Dean ,<br />Thank you all for your assistance . Given the four notched petals , I too went for Willowherb from the flower key initially . But what put me off , <br />and is still putting me off , is the size of the plant , and the fact that I did not come across water or damp area , anywhere during my time on the site , never mind where the plant was on the footpath .<br />I think it will have to go down as a 'strange one' , but appreciate your time and effort .Greeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18036202102998375825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297012542834525300.post-16280719016896575272009-08-24T15:01:04.518+01:002009-08-24T15:01:04.518+01:00Congratulations on the Brown Hairstreak Greenie yo...Congratulations on the Brown Hairstreak Greenie your persistence paid off!<br /><br /> After looking through my Collins Guide I too was going for the Short-fruited Willowherb (before seeing Dean's comments) but after googling it, to make sure, I wasn't so certain and went back to the book and noticed the plant can reach 80cms which doesn't seem to match your description. However so far I haven't come up with anything else.ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3297012542834525300.post-71682876054404691242009-08-24T06:53:40.194+01:002009-08-24T06:53:40.194+01:00Stunning Brown Hairstreak, Greenie.
