I have a picture of a small flower from the south coast of Swanage England
Can any one help in the identifacation of wild flowers?
from the web page ...
This is an identification program for wildflowers in the northeastern and north-central parts of United States and adjacent Canada (if you live on the West Coast, try Reny's Wildflowers). Fill out the form as best as you can and you'll find which wildflowers match. If you find no flowers that match, use the "Back" button and try unchecking a box or two. If you want to see all the flowers in the database, simply hit "Identify" without checking any boxes.
Reply:Swanage is lovely. The Isle of Purbeck all in all is amazing.
Try buying a small wild flower identification guide from Amazon. Photos are best, but read reviews.
Or look on a website called Plants for a future. They are very good.
Reply:if you describe it for us perhaps we could help you narrow your search. eg colour, number and shape of petals, height, describe leaves, habitat etc,
Reply:Go into your local book shop and buy the Observers guide to whatever, about a fiver.

Excuse my terrible English, please.
Reply:It's a bit difficult to identify a plant without either seeing a picture of it or, at the very least, getting a good botanical description of it.
I suggest you buy a wild flower guide (The Wild Flower Key by Francis Rose is excellent). Look through it until you see something similar and then read the description.
Another, and probably better, option is to join a Natural History Club of some sort where you will find no end of people able to identify the plants for you.
You will find that you gradually start to identify them yourself and very satisfying it is too.
