We do have two nice little populations of some 500 flowers of this species on the NW side of Hutton Roof.
In most years at this particular site we do also have Gentianella amarella also growing alongside them, but sadly they have not appeared during the past two years (2018,2019). It seems strange to me that the campestris have come through OK yet the amarella have just not come through!
