In this field where last year cereals were cultivated many little wild plants show themselves already. This one makes cushions of many square stalks with verticillated leaves and it belongs evidently to the Madder family. They feel a bit rough, and every leaf ends in a point.
It is Blue Field Madder (Sherardia arvensis) and it flowers in spring, and often also later in the year.
But January, that is really too early. However, yesterday some lilac-coloured flowers showed temselves. This month of January has been far too warm, maybe that is why.
A plant in full bloom in May. No, you cannot say the flowers are blue, unless you consider lilac as a kind of blue.
