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.
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.
