| Certainly is Julie - saw some stunning vetch on our bike ride yesterday, really abundant and a deep blue to pink. Like so many wild flowers when you get up close their structure is amazing.

Tink | It's also a huge pain in the backside when you get it invading your conservation grasslands. This could well be the next big problem alien invasive plant based on my experiences of it. Each mature plant can disperse over 100,000 seeds per annum and it spreads like billy-o. Remember where you heard it first! |

Vetches are much more to my taste than copiced hedges.
However, I can't see the 'attached thumbnails' in my browser - I use FireFox (latest update). I tried IE7 but just the same result - a little blue line box saying 'attached thumbnails' but no pictures.
Any advice ?
