Epilobium hirsutum

Belgium. Brussels.

 

Parc des sources

 

Though it used to be a landscaped park, indigenous species have slowly re-invaded most of the areas of the park. The park gets its name from the numerous springs (sources in French) which used to supply drinking water to the area. The park has a wooded area close to the railway path and a small pond closer to the Boulevard de la Woluwe.
