Epipactis Practice (Schmalhauseneii)

Epipactis Practice - Hutton Roof, Cumbria  -  I spent most of the summer months recording the rare Epipactis Schmalhauseneii (Dark Red Helliborine x Broad Leaved Helliborine Hybrid) which does have its strongest population within the UK on the Limestone pavements of Cumbria's Hutton Roof.  I have already managed to map out and record the main pavements, but there is still much work to be done to get a comprehensive document.
