Plants in the Seawilding garden

Seagrass - Seawilding is working in Loch Craignish to enhance and restore existing seagrass meadows. Seagrass is a vital habitat for other species. Seagrass is the only perennial flowering plant (not a seaweed) found in our coastal waters.

A native wildflower of wet meadows that is nationally in decline.

A variable herbaceous perennial forming compact clumps up to 80cm tall. Its leaves are up to 12cm wide and deeply divided into 3-5 lobes; each wedge-shaped segment is often further lobed and toothed. Clear lemon-yellow, spherical flowers are borne from late spring into early summer.

A rare native wildflower with purple flowers, found at 20 locations in the wild throughout England, Scotland and Wales.

A mat-forming to tufted perennial, to 45cm in height, with sticky stems bearing narrow, dark green leaves, and clusters of purplish-pink flowers, 2cm in width, in early and mid-summer.

Found extensively, an indicator of former old growth forests and has value to a wide range of other animals and insects.

Vaccinium can be evergreen or deciduous shrubs or small trees, with simple leaves and small, bell- or urn-shaped flowers followed by juicy, sometimes edible berries.

Found only in 3 locations, all in Scotland. This is an interesting sedge with long cord like growths along the ground.
