This May flowering native grows in drifts at the very end of Abermenai point of Newborough Warren on Anglesey. I had previously seen it in in clumps of no more than twelve but venturing much further a field during the Foot and mouth crisis, I came across huge numbers of this delightful lowland saxifrage. This photo doesn't do it justice so I guess I'll have to go again.
