One larger plant, 2 or 3 small ones close by. Added extra photo of more advanced flowering .. leaves fleshier and greener than other common everlasting elsewhere in woodland

I have seen the grey-green and fleshier green forms of common everlasting growing together on Red Hill and elsewhere. I have always thought in strange that you tend to get mono-variety clumps of the two forms rather than intermingled occurrences. It is a widespread and variable species so perhaps we haven't quite worked out the taxonomy or perhaps it is just a genetically diverse species.

Thanks so much. That's super interesting! Will keep and eye on the new patch.
