English translation:large bittercress
Explanation:
I think the text is referring to the ground flora in an alder carr (or alder grove an a riparian forest).

"olsy źródliskowe" ("Cardamino amare-Alnetum"), acc. to the first ref.

Cardamine amara is large bittercress (second ref.) and Alnetum is latin for "alder grove".
