Common plants – walls
These species are commonly found growing on or out of walls in urban areas. Here we look at wall rue, maidenhair spleenwort, ivy-leaved toadflax and hart's-tongue fern.
Common plants – garden escapes
These species are commonly found growing at the side of paths, roads and other places near human habitation. They are introduced plants that have escaped from cultivation. Here we look at Welsh poppy, yellow archangel, lady's-mantle and purple toadflax.
Common plants – edges and hedges
These species are commonly found growing at the side of paths and buildings and at the foot of hedges. Keep an eye out in other places too, though, because they grow in other places as well. Here we look at wood avens, herb Robert, sticky willie and ribwort plantain.
