East Perthshire - Botanical Society of the British Isles

NO 22NW 1987 anon
Being unattributed this record must remain questionable, though FBW mentions it in two places in the lowland part of the vice-county. Much declined in the north of its range
Geranium pusillum
Local rarity: Rare

FBW knew it as a casual in Perthshire but not in vc89. Only one recent record in vc88 (Mid-Perthshire) so obviously very scarce, but may be overlooked sometimes

Status a bit uncertain now as there is only one record since 2000. Seems to be absent from the Blair Atholl limestones, despite apparent suitability. Further information needed

Present on the vice-county's only, comparatively short, stretch of saltmarsh. Found once as a roadside halophyte and likely to be in other sites in this capacity
