Townhall Clock, also known as Moschatel, is a very unusual
plant, unrelated to other plants.
The leaves are light green with three lobes. The flowers are
very unusual with tiny yellow/green flowerheads (less than 1
cm across) on long stalks. Each flowerhead has five flowers,
four of which face in separate directions (like a townhall
clock) and the fifth faces directly upwards.
Townhall Clock grows in woodland and hedgerows. |
