WildID Ancient woodland indicators guide features over 40 flowering plants and ferns.
The guide features beautiful colour illustrations of each plant. For ease of use, these are grouped by woodland type, from lowland base-rich woods to upland acid woods and woods on boggy soils. Since the most appropriate indicators vary between different parts of the country, we have included a table for each county.
Ancient woods have been around long enough to develop as ecosystems that are rich, complex, and irreplaceable. But they are also a delight to visit. Some produce spectacular displays of spring flowers with carpets of bluebells and bursts of wood anemones. The plants provide evidence that a site has been continuously wooded for hundreds of years.
