User's notes

Small isolated patch (1m²) of pink/purple 'spears' x20ish. Could not see any others outside of the patch. Tallest was about a ruler/30cms high. Single stalk with multiple/many flowers from top to bottom. Head of plant was maybe 2 or 3 cm in diameter. No 'leaves' as far as I could tell. Appeared to be single stalks with flowers on them. Could not tell if it was a single plant with multiple stalks or 20ish individual plants
