Guest Blog from Christian Wagner, Isle of Lewis

Gunnera grows wild and quite freely on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland.  Here are photos of the plant near Portvoller taken by Christian Wagner.  The gunnera is now regarded and described as an 'Island Pest'.  Thank you Chris!







Portvoller is a small village on the north tip of the Eye Peninsula (also known as Point), on the Isle of Lewis, Outer Hebrides, northwestern Scotland. Its most prominent feature is the Tiumpan Head Lighthouse, which is located at the northernmost tip of the village.  It is 9 miles from Stornoway.
