#269 - Great Willowherb

I kept thinking this was early Rosebay Willowherb that had not fully opened, but then the real Rosebay started blooming and I realised it couldn't be. It looks like a domesticated cousin,  the same sing-across-the-park-purple but with a white, lolling stigma that lacks the splaying vitality of Rosebay and looks instead rather indolent. The colour though, that is the thing, and meant to be seen with green.
