Flora of Cornwall (1999)

The descriptive text, below the map, is from the Flora of Cornwall (1999), which was a Tetrad Atlas (the maps had 2km square dots or Tetrads). The map on this web page depicts the plant's distribution at the 1km square scale and shows the records made pre-2000 which were used in the 1999 Flora and those made since.

Doronicum pardalianches - Leopard's-bane



Leopard' s-bane is a large and conspicuous member of the Daisy family which is occasionally found naturalised along road verges. It is rarely persistent and recent records include the road verge near Pendarves (SW63I, 1995, C.N.French), near Colan (SW86Q, 1993, H.M.Meredith), and at Downderry (SX35B, 1991, R.W.Gould).
