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.

Honeywort New to VC64

News just in from Howard Beck of the finding of Honeywort (Cerinthe major) on the road verge of Neps Lane at Newsholme. This species is widely grown in gardens as the cultivar 'Purpurascens'. This appears to be the first record for Mid-West Yorkshire. The following photographs were taken by Howard.
