This bog asphodel plant is tucked into a damp, sheltered area behind a coir log, which was previously bare #peat 😍 It's the only one at the moment, but the cottongrass and sphagnum are spreading and creating conditions suitable for other bog species to become established 😊🌿

An extreme risk warning for wildfires has been issued by @scottishfirerescue.bsky.social .
