Description: | The Spring Gentian is a very rare species in Britain and Ireland. It prefers limestone soils and is found at just a few sites in the Upper Tees valley and in the far west of Ireland. The plants produce a single intense blue flower during the late spring and early summer. This specimen is the type - the individual specimen from which the species was described. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | North East plants natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
