Frequent on exposed coasts, on rocks, shingle and cliff-tops. Can occur inland, but doubtful if it does so in Skye. Inflorescence 0.5-4 cm long. Leaves 2-6 cm. Skye ID: Leaves usually with side lobes, unlike other Skye Plantago sp. Occasionally very narrow and without lobes but never fleshy like Sea Plantain. Other features: Flowerheads can be almost globular, or long-cylindrical, as these pictures show. Stamens pale yellow. Generally a smaller plant than other plantains. |
