About

Senecio cambrensis, the Welsh groundsel or Welsh ragwort, is a flowering plant of the family Asteraceae. It is endemic to Great Britain and currently known only from North Wales. It is a recently evolved plant that arose as a result of hybridization between two related species.

Where it grows

Outside Wales, it was erroneously reported from Shropshire in 1970 and introduced into a school garden in Wolverhampton in the 1990s, where it did not survive.
