N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

I think Saxifraga spathularis

[mossysal]

No, definitely not S spathularis which is cuneate at the base. It may be (probably is) S. hirsuta (S. geum) as detailed on the sheet. It is a rare plant in the wild but locally common in Kerry and also grown in gardens. [Stace 2010]

Thanks S guem is not in my books for some reason.

It's an old name - the current name is S hirsuta
