shrub

Upland heathland is characterised by the presence of low-growing shrubs, such as heather.

Monkey flowers in orange and red, scarlet bugler, purple and white sages and coffeeberry shrubs are coming into their own.

Beyond the vegetable beds is a planting area of native shrubs and grasses to provide additional habitat and permeable surface to collect rainwater.

Blaker expects the deceptively alluring shrub to soon impact trails such as Idlehour, Castle Canyon and the upper reaches of Mt.

After the seeds have a chance to grow and energize the soil, the mature native shrubs and perennials will be planted, probably in mid-May, Rock said.
