Species Details

Pellitory-of-the-wall is a native perennial of walls and rock outcrops. Records are frequent from the southern and eastern parts of the county, but it becomes rarer in the more upland White and Dark Peak areas {New Whittington SK3975, Derby Museum courtyard SK3536}. A specimen from the later location is held at Derby Museum.
