BED 2 - PIONEER COMMUNITIES:
As the pioneer plants thrive, grow and then eventually die and decay, humus is formed as plant nutrition and small plant communities can take root and provide each other with shelter. These plants form more humus and the communities can grow larger and more diverse.
Plant species in Bed 2 may include: Buckshorn Plantain, Rock Samphire, Scurvy Grass, Sea Beet, Sea Campion, Sea Heath, Sea Holly, Sea Lavender, Sea Mayweed, Sea Stock, Stonecrops, Thrift, Tree Mallow, Voper's Bugloss & Yellow Horned-poppy.
To see a pictures of a plant enter its name in "quotes" in the search function but ignore the B&W ones that come from my photographic website
