Some of the Wild Flower species seen growing on Pavements, in Road-Side Gutters &c. and on a small area of waste ground, whilst we were walking to/from the Bus Stop (we went shopping in Bexleyheath):
Annual Mercury
Hairy Bittercress
Buck's-Horn Plantain
Cleavers
Common Chickweed
Common Mallow
Common Stork's-Bill
Common Whitlowgrass
Cornsalad
Dandelion
Four-Leaved Allseed
Green Alkanet
Groundsel
Hairy Bittercress
Henbit Dead-Nettle

A few more than we expected. So much so, we are now hopeful the local Spotted Spurge has survived the Council' Spraying. And we have just realised we didn't see any Water Bent: previously common, so hopefully it might re-appear.
