Ostrich fern:
___________________________________________________________________________________
Matteuccia struthiopteris (L.) Tod. Ostrich Fern ___________________________________________________________________________________
|
Colony naturalised by the eastern end of the pond in Wellmead TQ587,906. Presumably a relict from the days when this garden was part of Eleanor Wilmotts estate. Tim Pyner date ? This is probably the clump recorded by Brian Coombes as the superficially similar 'Thelypteris palustris'.
