Broomrape

OROBANCHE ...arenaria possibly? This is fairly widespread, and if I can find out which plant it is parasitising, I might be able to identify the species. I'll post more tomorrow.
Edit: Having looked at the Virtual Herbal, I think it is OROBANCHE nana, as the plants that it parasitises are common on The Bottom.

Bossman has just asked if I fancy going to have a look at the Fallas before they burn tonight. Hopefully I can get some pics for 0j0...
