2024 Newsletter

The 2024 SRPG Newsletter is now available thanks to the hard work of our editor Karen Andrews and all the contributors to meeting reports and other articles. Reports on each of our 19 field and indoor meetings in 2024 are included covering fascinating visits to sites right across Somerset from the Ashton Court Estate on the edge of Bristol, to Blackmore Farm near the Dorset border and from Robber’s Bridge on Exmoor to King’s Castle Warren on the eastern border. There are also five short articles on botanical subjects and a tribute to the late Rob Randall. Finally, there is the list of new and interesting plants records made during the year.

Some of the many lovely photographs from our meetings in 2024. Clockwise from top left: Wood Horsetail (Equisetum sylvaticum) at Britty Common, Moonwort (Botrychium lunaria) from Brean Down, Green-winged Orchid (Anacamptis morio) from Babcary Meadows, and members at Pitney © Val Graham, Nicky Hodges, Fred Rumsey, and Helena Crouch respectively.
