  1. Hello Jessica,
    Lovely dune photographs. What are the tall yellow flowers? Are they Evening Primrose? I have heard that these flowers can be garden escapes that have ended up on the coast.
    Regards,
    Trevor.

  2. Hello, Trevor.
    Thank you. Yes, the tall yellow flowers are Evening Primrose, and you are correct in saying that they are an introduced species that has naturalised in the wild. Here is a close-up of one of the plants at Pembrey.
