Welsh Poppy

A naturalised plant of rough ground, at the edge of car parks and the like, but in this case a few showing up along the water channel that goes under the road adjacent to the reserve. This little-visited corner of the reserve is very different to the rest, with a forest of ferns, Wood Sorrell and Great Woodrush. It also has Greater Stitchwort and Gooseberry.

Welsh Poppy is the 317th species of vascular plant on the reserve list.
