This is the flower of Moschatel (Adoxa moschatellina). I find it a remarkable flower with multi flowers on one stem. I found it in a hillforrest with wells and moist conditions.
You can find the whole plant here.
info on wikipedia
The Moschatel or Muskroot (Adoxa moschatellina) is the sole member of the genus Adoxa. It grows in hedgerows throughout Europe, Asia, and North America, in cool forests, at low altitudes in the far north, to high altitudes in mountains in the south of its range. The flowers, and plant, has a musk-like scent, which it emits towards evening when the dew falls. If the plant is bruised this scent disappears. It flowers in April and May (Europe). |
