Giant Hogweed - horrible stuff!

There's been some interest lately about Giant Hogweed, a plant which can cause serious injury to children and adults. 

 It is not the only commonly-growing plant which can hurt, annoy, or injure us: but it is one of the worst!

If you are not sure what it looks like, or how to recognise it, here is the answer - for less than a fiver! (Or FREE if you have Kindle Unlimited) 


 Available from Amazon Kindle, here: Horrors of the Hedgerow   and don't worry if you don't have a Kindle, Amazon kindly provide a free option to download it to your PC, phone, or tablet:

There, on the right-hand side, it's called "Read on your device" and it's a quick, simple, free little app (or "programme" as we grown-ups say), which allows you to download it to any device, not just a Kindle.

I've ringed it in red, so that you can find it!
 

So don't delay, download it now, read it, show it to your children, then get outdoors and enjoy the countryside without having to worry about accidentally encountering this plant - once you know what it looks like, you can avoid it!
