Searocket

Searocket. Notice the similarity to wild radish flowers.

Searocket (Cakile maritima) is another plant that can be seen among the dunes. It belongs to the Mustard family (Brassicaceae) as can be seen by its flower: notice the similarity to mustard and radish flowers. The flowers of searocket are small and pale mauve. As typical for other mustards, the mature plant produces pods.

Note. The big leaves in two pictures actually belong to a different plant, Ambrosia chamissonis. But the leaves of searocket look very similar albeit much smaller. You can see some on the picture above. See my post about Ambrosia chamissonis.

Here is the picture of searocket leaves:
