OK. Go to this sighting, click on the green Edit button in top RH corner. An edit window opens showing the map location in the middle of the road. ( You may have to zoom in using the + button in the bottom RH corner of the map.) Holding your mouse button down, move the map until you can see the actual location where the blue devil was growing. Then click on that spot and the green plant icon will be put just there.
Then click on green Update Sighting button on bottom LH corner.
Hey Presto its done!
