This week i did a 3 day heathland course based around Lowland Heaths. I knew the basics about heaths but nothing about the many different species you can get on the sites other than the usual heath, gorse and various grasses. Here are a few pictures of the various species found on our local heaths.

 

Pic 1 - Bell Heather - Erica cinerea

Pics 2,3+4 - Heath Milkwort Polygala serpyllifolia

Pic 5 - Cross-leaved Heath - Erica tetralix

Pics 6+7 - Ling - Calluna vulgaris

Pics 8+9 - Oblong-leaved Sundew - Dosera intermedia

Pics 10+11 - Marsh Gentian - Gentiana pneumonanthe

Pics 12+13 - Bog Asphodel - Narthecium ossifragum

Pics 14+15 - Dorset Heath - Erica ciliaris
