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.

Arum maculatum x italicum - Hybrid Lords-and-Ladies



Given the local abundance of both parents in West Cornwall, this hybrid might be expected to be more common than has been reported. Where established, it can be very persistent, as in a wood and lane near Lelant Station, (SW53N) where it has been known for more than twenty years.
