Hares and harebells are in the meadows on these quiet hills east of Llanybydder. There is a spectacular abundance of yellow rattle and eyebright – both ideal species for early-stage restoration projects. Red clover is also abundant in this bumble-bee friendly mixture for acid-neutral soils, and other species such as pignut and southern marsh orchid enrich parts of the fields. The fine-leaved grasses such as red fescue and common bent would be ideal for creating a basic meadow over bare ground. Species listed in bold are usually prevalent in the mix.
