Wow...makes your mouth go numb!!! They used to use it as an anesthetic for dentistry).
That is a neat variety...genus? is that what I should say?
Yeah...maybe the island thing ...I have heard ..but do not know much about it that many unique plants and animals grow on islands found no where else. Next time we are down that way want to head to Galapagos, have heard it is a wonderland of unique species!
I so enjoy our conversation..you have taught me much,
Blessings for your day,

Glad you enjoyed! Ireland does have some of it's own biodiversity gems (look up the burren for example), but due to the ice age grating our vegetation layer off and then being isolated by water which impeded recolonisation by plants there's a paucity of species compared to the continent.

Enjoy your day!
