| Issue 10 of Botanical
Cornwall, edited by Rose Murphy, has just been published and is as interesting
and varied as ever. This issue contains articles about new species of plant found
recently in Cornwall, as well as giving a list of the rare plants of this area.
It has many illustrations, both photocopies of actual specimens and colour photographs,
including two wonderful photos of hairy greenweed taken by MJ Stribley. There
is also a key to the fumitories found in Cornwall, as well as an article about
the work of the Environmental Records Centre for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly
(ERCCIS). |
