Does anyone recognise this bush?
It is quite prickly and not very popular nowadays.

I fell for it! ;-)
Actually... my other post was in a similar vein, the
product of my twisted imagination. I'd just made the whole
thing up for April 1st! You seem to have caught me out
though posting a link to defra that implies there is some
truth to it after all - and they even call it "Plant
passports"!!! Oh the irony!
If anything, David, it shows how embroiled in bureaucracy we have become. I
started to write "Good try for 1st April" and then I thought 'hang on a
minute, that rings a bell', so I did a bit of Googling and the real tragedy
is you really *couldn't* make it up!! ;-((
