usha di,
you recognize rightly, but the daisy ist hundskamille some /Anthemis /I
don't know the details. I tried to look into icelandic flora but did not
find it on net. Don't know why. it is omnipresent. You stumble over it.
I thought perhaps expert botanists know which sort of /Anthemis /grows
just under the polar circle.
Kuckucksblume is /Dactylorhiza majalis/(Nördliche = northern)
For the rest i have provided the lat. names. Which stellaria grows in
greenland i don't know. I did not find any book on greenland flora and
did not search much on net. :-( I enjoy flowers, if i don't know the
exact name, it is ok for me.
Hope it helps.
Thanks Garg ji, for your kind words

in Summer of 2012 we visited faroe-islands, Iceland and Greenland.
Though I made many many fotos there, I have to choose a few. I did
it today. Though it is nice to see the old fotos, I don't feel
like doing it today, when it is snow everywhere and the
temperatures are below -10. I just went quickly thru my
collection and chose the ones I found remarkable.
In Iceland I remember to have seen Wollgras (/Eriophorum
scheuchzeri/) and arctic poppy (/Papaver radicatum/) in white,
yellow, to orange. But more than that there was Hundskamille
(/anthemis/) everywhere, in the harbour, wastelands, along the
roads, everywhere. In *Seyðisfjörður* ( Iceland 65° 16′ N,
14° 1′ W

I found one orchidee Nördliche Kuckucksblume near a waterfall. I
could not go very near to it. I am attaching these Fotos here.
In Akureyri in iceland there is a wonderful botanical garden,
worth visiting.
In Greenland too there was beautiful vegetation, Mooswith small
flowers, Lichens on the rocks, colorful from white to deep orange.
But I remember the beautiful sunny and warm (!) day in
*Qeqertarsuaq*** Greenland 69° 14′ 45″ N, 53° 32′ 14″ W.
<http://toolserver.org/%7Egeohack/geohack.php?pagename=Qeqertarsuaq&language=de¶ms=69.245833333333_N_53.537222222222_W_dim:10000_region:GL_type:city%28858%29>
Here too I watched dandelion, vogelmiere () etc, but Arktische
Weidenröschen (/Epilobium-latifolium/) was the one, making the
land smile under the blue sky.
I hope you enjoy the fotos
Best wishes for 2013 somewhat late but from heart.
Regards
