Speyside near Aviemore and Newtonmore
Cross-leaved heath (Erica tetralix), RSPB Loch Garten, Speyside. Whorls of four leaves grow up its stem. The flowers of Cross-leaved Heath are pink rather than the purple of Bell Heather, with which it might be confused. The flowers of Cross-leaved Heath are also larger and grow on only one side of the stem. Most often found on heathlands, heathers are a good source of nectar for a range of invertebrates.
