Botanising in Huntingdonshire, Yorkshire and Beyond

I am the Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland (BSBI) Vice-County Recorder for Huntingdonshire (VC31) and Mid-West Yorkshire (VC64). I've set-up this botany blog to more readily share news on recent wildflower discoveries made by myself and others, to encourage wider recording, and as a way to challenge myself to take more photographs of the plants I find. See the BSBI website for more information on the work of the society and the diverse range of botany projects currently in progress.

Yellow Nonea New to VC64

Yellow Nonea (Nonea lutea) is a rare garden escape with the BSBI database currently holding just 60 records for the whole of the UK. I found this species in Whixley in April this year, during a trip to improve coverage of this under-recorded part of VC64 for the BSBI Atlas 2020 project.
