I am not getting all posts, so I apologise if I appear to be ignoring people
who have been very helpful. It is not intentional. The Polar Bear ID
sounds a possible but a lot would depend on when it was introduced. The one
we saw was a very old, well established plant and Ray's guess is that it was
30 to 40 years old, maybe even more.

The Hillier Manual says 1926.


Now why didn't I think of that........ ;-) Thank you. That makes it a
definite contender, then.
