Crespigny.

“ Is not this worthy of specific distinction ? Locally abundant there, 
and in the Crowe of Kin tail and Glen ShieL Not seen east of 
watershed. In all cases anglica and rotundifolia present, but in first 
locality the last-named was not very near. The plant was in profuse 
flower, and, as far as I could see, ripened its seed. Professor 
Lawson tells me it is more abundant in many districts of Skye than 
either anglica or rotundifolia .” — G. C. Druce. “The specimens I have 
seen have the fruit abortive, so I believe in the theory of hybridity. 
The only way to be certain would be to raise it from seed, if perfect 
seeds could be obtainep.” — J. T. Boswell.
