FLORA AND FAUNA
The diversity of plants and animals in our area would require a website of its own! There are gentians and lavender, wild strawberries and violets as well as about twenty different orchids. Just over hte border are cork oaks and the everlasting 'St John's flower'. Edible fungi are plentiful here, inlcuding ceps and morels. Among the many butterflies - the scarce swallowtail, the two-tailed pasha and the Camberwell beauty.
