This is the Outramps CREW 100,000 obs and we celebrated it with Tilla who is the Head of the Threatened Plants Programme and the CREW Programme. It represents our involvement with plant monitoring from 1992 to 2021. It has been a joyous ride. So thank you all for so many years of fun, laughs and learning. Keep going!

Erica hendrickseiObserver
chris_whitehouseDescription
Genuine Erica hendricksei. Now I have seen these populations, they are clearly distinct from Erica fastigiata var. coventryi but some populations appear to have introgressed.
Erica hendricksei has a denser leafier head of flowers, the tube is narrow from the base, without any notable bulge at the bottom or constriction at the mouth. The tube widens at the mouth just below the lobes and therefore the anthers are visible in the mouth.
