Second Twayblade!

In the 'lawn' near the house as well, rather than in the haycut and aftermath grazed fields. This follows one Twayblade in 2019 and one in 2020. Suddenly we have doubled our numbers. They are all in different spots and very spread out so I have no idea what is going on. Maybe there are seeds spread around in the soil and our management has encouraged them to move to flowering which they have done over a ten year period. Although the lawn area is not cut for hay it is allowed to grow in the summer and it does get some sort of grazing from rabbits so maybe it is not so different to the fields. Now I have two I'll have to get pollinating.....
