As this is a prize crossword, I will avoid any answers. However, I have submitted and got 97% so one of my answers is wrong. My answers all appear to be right (at least in my mind) so my thought at the moment is a possible alternative answer.

I think 13d could be the issue.

Low-growing plant (9)

If anyone has 100%, can they tell me if they have entered the plant name ending in an "a" or an "e" as I believe both are valid. I entered the name ending in "e".

I saw this after submitting mine. I'd gone for the "a" ending for 13D and - guess what? - 97%...

I thought the same as you because I'm also as sure as I can be that all my other answers are correct. So - dunno...
Saxifrage
stain, what did you put for 20d.? I can't see any obvious pitfalls.I submitted OK.
Well - I put "skivvy", Danny. If you went for saxifrage and it was OK, I can only think that Stain must have one of the others wrong.

I'm inclined to agree that either version could be correct and would say there should be a checker here...
Skivvy is correct. Saxifraga is the genus, but the plant is saxifrage as shown in Chambers which is the dictionary used by the Telegraph setters.

Ok. I think that suggests I have something else wrong. I will have another look.
6 down?
