7 Hoheneck How can you spot the raven in the cherry tree. For a more difficult one, how can you spot a canary in a field of swaying wheat. (True but too slow with the camera.)

15 Hoheneck, Hilltop with Watchtower. The fence post holders are hardly of recent vintage. Metal clamps have superceded the projecting stone plugs for quite some time now. Irrefutable proof: Try to find the former article in any builder supply market.
16 Hoheneck
17 Hoheneck The tower is aligned with the flag rather than connected. There are alottment gardens in front.
18 Hoheneck where Attica is close - vineyards in the marl

22 Hoheneck Should tell you something about aquiferous veins and soil layers when you come across a well this close to an escapement summit.

25 Veronica Speedwell. Veronica persica or V opaca. Some plant books stipulate an enlarged, distinctly white bottom petal for the former.
26 Veronica
27 Veronica
28 Veronica chamaedrys Germander Speedwell. Best guess. Most plant books agree on a slightly elongated lower petal. The shown flower color varies from sky blue to mauve.
29 Senecio vulgaris Groundsel, Tournfort Speedwell and a piece of viticulture debris. Groundsel very much the runt of the Dandelion Hawkweed litter.
30 Lamium purpureum + Veronica Red Dead Nettle
31 Lamium purpureum + Veronica
32 Lamium purpureum Only few seeds, one tetra pack per flower, but apparently unaffected by auxine based herbicides. Thrives on fertilizer.

41 Sedum album White Stonecrop, xerophyte by trade
42 Sedum album Stonecrop, non flowering. Just some wilted stalks.
43 Sedum album The yellow rock wall coloring is Xanthoria parietina, a lichen.

65 EnBW, Powerpark The higher left river bank more suitable for fortifications. Most often the case. Moot point, Coriolis or accident.

72 EnBW , Powerpark (Marbach III) Winter bleached bulrushes against the backdrop of a shut down EnBW utility plant. The place is sometimes mistaken with Neckarwest. Usual guilt by association.
The diesel burning plant itself is reportedly still operational. Strategic reserve. Everything has to be demothballed when the fuel rod burning stops. As for the term 'park', standard jargon for subletting something piecemeal, or trying to do so.

78 Hoheneck Schiller's sire, gardener to the court, put his name on the horticultural map by naming a species of apple after the muzzle shape of sheep. Particular brand no longer of any commercial importance.
