Our luck deserted us today, and the weather in Teesdale was pretty awful. Even so, there were still some great flowers to see. Scottish Asphodel was unexpected and a first for me, whilst Apline Bistort is a plant I have only seen once before in Britain, at Ben Lawers in Scotland. Other interesting plants included Hair Sedge, False-sedge and Long-stalked Yellow Sedge.
