This superb show of wild flowers are mostly those which would formerly be found in corn fields. They were seen in the first half of June alongside the Green Chain Walk on Thamesmead between Abbey Road and Yarnton Way. Apart from poppies, cornflowers, corncockle, corn marigold and ox-eye daisies were prominent. I had never seen so many cornflowers.
