Knapweed is a beautiful flower that stands in its finest beauty at this time. I'm not sure if the pictures show knapweed of the species (Centaurea jacea) or (Centaurea nigra). These flowers can be so similar that a botanist needs to determine the species correctly.
Here in northern Norway, it is beautiful with long sunny days.
Andøya had the midnight sun right up to July 23rd, and now the plant life in the wild is showing off in all its lushness.
