Ireland is not the best place in Europe when it comes to a wide variety of different wildflowers but this is not synonym that here we don't an impressive and gorgeous flora, and I'm gonna show you with this post that I'm right!

| Viola tricolor |
Last weekend I spent around 45min in a walk in Dublin 3 and around 2h in the south area of Bull Island. Both places are part of County Dublin, Ireland. Now it comes the main question: how many native wildflowers did I recorded in less than 3h spent on my last weekend?
Are you ready to know them? You'll be impressed!
Number of Species found: 34
Families found: 17
I need to admit I didn't have time to record other species that I also found, so I truly believe I could easily reach 50 different species. I promise this weekend I will bring exciting new things!
Now you have no excuses to go to explore what is around in your city. Open your eyes very well, bring a lenses because lots of species are really tiny and lets investigate our beautiful Irish flora.
