Fiddle Dock?

[Peter W]

I found this dock the other day, the leaves have a constriction in the middle which suggests a Fiddle Dock, but this species is pretty rare in these parts. On the other hand, it could just be a more common dock with some unusual crinkles in the centre of the leaves. Any thoughts appreciated.

The leaves do resemble those of Fiddle Dock which I see fairly often around Plymouth and I expect your hunch is a good one. But you really have to see the fruits and the distinctive growth form of the mature plant to be sure.

Thanks Phil, I will have to go back next year and hope it flowers.
