The poet Valerie Gillies and artist Rebecca Marr, have their exhibition ‘When The Grass Dances’ (also an excellent book) at the Pier Arts Centre, Stromness, Orkney. The exhibit concerning the wildflower Eriophorum angustifolium (bog cotton, cotton grass, downy ling, tassel cotton grass) was fascinating. This is a vigorous spreading perennial of boggy moors and heaths.
