    Hi folks,

    could you identify this flower? It looks like a chickweed but I'm not sure.

    Maybe a chickweed, maybe a starwort, but most possibly genus Stellaria.

    Thank you for your help, Sulev. I took your suggestion and extended the research. It seems to be a Stellaria holostea.

    Stellaria holostea is usually a forest species, preferring rich and moist soils. If your sample is growing in that habitat, then it is very likely Stellaria holostea.
