Soldanella alpina , or the capably named Alpine Snowbell , is blooming much later on this year in the Alps in and around Wengen , Switzerland . I usually find flowers that have go on to seed , but this class it ’s another story , and the treasured Soldanella alpina are in point blush , and they even were treated to a spring snow which recognize us this daybreak .
A native species of Colt ’s Foot , Tussilago farfara I think , displaying thier spent blossoms , in a dependency along a gelid flow . The view here would be splendid , with the Eiger , North Face and the glaciers of the Jungfrau in the distance , but all we have seen for three twenty-four hours now is fog , clouds and Charles Percy Snow .
Trollius europaeus , in a white alpine scree .
Not sure if this is Tussilago or Petasites , but I would wager either is cheeseparing . Young leaf in the snow .
Silene acaulis , which we also have growing in our White Mountains of New Hampshire , but also grows at the higher elevations in the Alps .
Ranunculus glacialis , an alpine buttercup which looks totally different when control at even higher elevation where it becomes more prone and thick .
Primula hirsuta
A saxifraga hold back a weight unit of snow on its tiny , wiry root word .
Primula hirsuta , and ice on a rock ledge .
