This year, due to past successes coming to light; It has been an 'All about Campions' year. I have been adding other plants too, but Campions have been 1st on the list for this year and I have tried to get a small colony started off on every high moor site, I can think of.They are a good plant to introduce, as they have an extraordinarily long flowering period of May to September and so service the insect and bird populations well and so services the entire food chain.
Other native plant species I have had similar success with, that I have planted a bit this year and in past years; which I intend doing the same with are:
- Wild Strawberries
- Valerian (Valeriana, not cedranthus)
- Jack by the hedge
- Wood Sage
- Wild Lettuce
- Sow Thistle(various types)
- Nipple Wort
- Meadow Sweet
