So who's spotted my favourite (plant to photo) this year???

Henbane

[Tiggrx]

Saw some in France last month but none here in the UK. Though I did see some plants of Hyoscyamus x gyoerffyi the hybrid between our native Henbane (H. niger) and the White Henbane (H. albus) planted at the Chelsea Physic Garden - not a hybrid combination I had heard of before.

Me neither. I have wondered if any wild hybrids exist in the UK, as often some plants tend have more yellow in the flower and others are more robust in their growth, there have been a couple of recordings of yellow henbane growing in the wild the UK but not for a long long time.
