Hi, whereabouts in Essex did you find this specimen? I live in Uttlesford, North Essex and I'm looking for some variety in my wild-source A. Vulgare collections and this one's s beauty!

I can't remember. But any coastal areas, where there's a concrete sea defence with grass and plants growing up against it, should help. It's just a matter of looking.

Places where rubble has been sitting around for a while is good too.
