Hogweed in the Hedgerows

 Note: with Blogger offline for several hours this particular post was lost. I have now replaced it and hope I can remember my original photos etc.  I apologise to Mary C. Nasser who had kindly left a comment on my original post.

A few weeks ago I noticed that the hogweed was starting to grow again in the verges

and they are now in flower

you can see that not all the flowers have turned white yet

 and, of course, I couldn't resist a quick sketch
