Ok so the photo can only be described politely as a 'record shot', but what a surprise to find Grass-poly (Lythrum hyssopifolia). As per usual whenever I make a good find, it was outside my VC and just inside VC63. But I'm not complaining, a species I had only seen once before and then only because I was shown it, and a completely new location for this rare and unpredictable species. This seems to be the first record for VC63 since 1923. I hope the geese leave it alone so it gets to set lots of seed for next year.
