Tufts of sand sedge, precisely spaced, pushed through the sandy soil from nodules on long underground roots.

One contained sterilized soil and the other soil in which its successors, the fescue and sand sedge, had also lived.

Sea holly, sand sedge, bird's-foot trefoil and pyramidal orchid are other specialists of this arid habitat.

In the unsterilized soil of their predecessor, however, the fescue and sand sedge flourished as well as they had in the sterilized soil.

Sea holly and sand sedge are other specialists of this arid habitat, and petalwort is a nationally rare bryophyte found on damper dunes.
