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.

Double Trouble

Today's botanical highlight, on a brief but chilly walk round Oulton (VC63) to restore my sanity after a day chained to a laptop, was this gem. The double-flowered (but fully fertile) form of Greater Celandine (Chelidonium majus 'Flore Pleno'). Ok, I have loads in my garden, but even so its always a nice plant to find as an escape.
