2 Plantago spp.

Post by MWP admin »

I have 2 different species of plantago which needs yr help.

For the first species, I have put my mind on Plantago macrorhiza: (narrow bracts, no median vein, abd tomentose.

On the second, I have not much photos available, but I was wondering upon P. coronopus (subsp. comutatum?)

The first looks like Plantago coronopus, (subsp. coronopus is common in Belgium and Holland and is similar except for the bracts and keel).
