Fraxino-Ulmetum - what does that mean? It's certainly impressionistic, Rense. Lovely.

Thats really interesting, love the deep blue colour.

Thanks guys! Rob, sorry for the botanical term, it's a kind of very well defined forest type on clay. Just for my exact botanical friends - I thought the impressionistic view with the over-exact description of the forest type would be a nice match...

Yes, a nice match but one that is wasted on the likes of us Less Than Laymen, except for Pete who seems to know the latin name for every plant.

Nice Rense. I can google such words it and then pretend I am wise

But you have to be careful, Julian. There are hundreds of online forums out there full of people who think they are experts. Many people have been led astray that way.

Yeah, I know, with Pete around I have to be careful...
