Purple Loosestrife

Walking past the area of waste ground on my way to church this morning i stopped for a look at the variety of wild flowers and flowering shrubs ..... some rose hips starting to appear but no sign yet of the wonderful red colour.

Plenty of rubbish and discarded items that would not make for a very good blip so I opted for this Purple Loosestrife ..... a new addition to my list of identified wildflowers.
