Stachys sylvatica L. var. subsericea Grogn. -

This distinctively downy form with smaller leaves (about 4.5 x 3 cm) was first discovered locally at Peasedown St. John, North Somerset in 2000s by ? [BSBI record] and for the first time in the north of the region in a small paddock adjacent to the M32 close to Avon Wildlife Trust’s Grow Wilder site in Stapleton in 2021 by G. Balfry and S. Waycott and later encountered that same year at Ashton Court and again by the Begbrook bus stop close to the original site in 2024.

[Also recorded near North Wraxall in 2010s by ? - BSBI record. Is it within the region?]
