Hemiparasitic yellow rattle tapping into coarse perennials, leeching nutrients, suppressing grassy matts and skirts. A self-seeding weave of wildflowers where the wood rise breaks, common harebell, heath spotted orchid, wood cranesbill. Abandoned orchard belts, reclaimed from the forest, leafing anew. Splits of native / non-native planting to increase biodiversity, habitat support, site resilience.
