East Cleveland Woodland Diaries

Season: Spring
Woodland: Hagg Wood

Alternate-leaved golden-saxifrage is quite scarce in our area and you need to look closely in damper areas and by the beck to find it.

Moschatel is also called Town-hall-clock after its flower head which is four flowers like the clock faces of a town hall tower and then one flower on the top. It’s also green in flower and the leaves look like wood anemone, so it can be hard to spot.
