Plants growing along short bulldozed track across gorse-covered hillside. Up to c.10 plants along a 50m stretch of track. Only 1 flowering specimen (from track). The gorse above the track was burnt last summer - ideal for germination of new plants. The site is a long way distant from houses. Two specimens: flowering (AK297378) & fruiting (AK297379)
