Britain's rarest plant 'rediscovered in Herefordshire'

The Ghost Orchid has been spotted flowering, in the wild, for the first time in 15 years, in an undisclosed location in Herefordshire.

Botanist Richard Bate discovered the flower in the county and has been telling Tammy Gooding how much of a relief - and surprise - it was to find the plant, whose location must remain secret as the plant is so fragile.
