Brockham Quarry nature reserve: Guelder rose

Brockham Quarry is a very special place: see http://www.surreywildlifetrust.org/reserves/brockham-lime-works for more information.  This entry is for all "Dutchies" who may be interested to note that the common name 'guelder rose' relates to the Dutch province of Gelderland, where a popular cultivar, the snowball tree, supposedly originated.
