#hottentot

🌱

La Corbière Managed to get a quick photo in between rain showers! The stormy weather is making the sea the most amazing turquoise blue at the moment. The flower is hottentot fig that grows all over the cliffs, especially on the south coast. It is an invasive non-native species that arrived in Britain in the 17th century and was recorded as wild in the 19th century (so when you see it all over the cliffs in Poldark, that is not historically accurate!). It is originally from South Africa, where it is native. There is a campaign of clearing it on the cliffs in Jersey and whilst I understand it is necessary to support the local biodiversity, it’s one of the invasive species I quite like because when it flowers it makes the cliffs turn pink or yellow or orange. . . . . . #jerseyci #jerseychannelislands #jersey #hottentot #hottentotfig #invasivespecies #southcoast #cliffpath #lacorbière #lighthouse #saturday #may #summertime #visitjersey #visitjerseyci #theislandbreak #lovewhereyoulive #betweenthestorms #whereissummer #cliffviews #islandviews (at Corbiere Causeway) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPQx7eJrmPR/?utm_medium=tumblr
