Native to Britain or not?
The Plants For A Future linked webpage speculates that it is native to south west Britain. The Natural History Museum link is no longer correct, and its database does not work for me. If it is introduced, then why was it introduced? Was it ornamental or did it have some use in the past? It shares the same common name - Alkanet - to Dyer's Alkanet, but is a different species. Somewhere in the world it must be a native species - where is that? 92.28.255.47 (talk) 09:26, 26 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi there is currently a discussion on adding or removing distribution categories on plant genre. I am opposed to the removal as it causes this type of questions!! According to Plants of the World Online (supported by Kew Gardens and others) they note that the native range of this genus is SW. Europe.
 * and Native to: France, Portugal, Spain
 * Introduced into: Belgium, British Columbia, California, Czechoslovakia, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, Maine, Oregon, Tasmania, Washington.
 * I hope this helps
 * I am going to add that detail to the current page.DavidAnstiss (talk) 15:55, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
