Common gorse flowers a little in late autumn and through the winter, coming into flower most strongly in spring.

It is used as an agent of biological pest control on common gorse, a noxious weed.

The early research into the biological control of common gorse in New Zealand was among the first of such programs worldwide.

Common gorse, originally a hedge plant in Britain, was introduced to New Zealand for the same purpose.

Ulex europaeus (Common gorse)

Common gorse is there, but also the less common (and native) dwarf gorse, or western furze, and willow and pedunculate oak have appeared.

Common Gorse is one such problem which has prompted the formation of an official Ballarat Region Gorse Task Force in 1999 to control.

Common gorse is also an invasive species in the montane grasslands of Horton Plains National Park in Sri Lanka.

The most widely familiar species is common gorse (Ulex europaeus), the only species native to much of western Europe, where it grows in sunny sites, usually on dry, sandy soils.

It disappeared from at least six Cornish sites between 1971 and 2005 due to shading from Common Gorse Ulex europaeus and Bramble Rubus fruticosus agg.

Many plants such as heather, cross-leaved heath, dwarf and common gorse, heath spotted-orchid, bog asphodel, and round-leaved sundew are now thriving, along with keeled skimmer dragonfly and tree pipit as a result of heath and bog habitat restoration.

He would see Furze tomorrow, and put the whole thing before him.

If there's anything in there about furze, I am ready.

And that is just where Furze made a big mistake.

Still backing, he had come up against a wall of furze.

In the past the site was known as Furze Hill.

We got to Little Furze and went into the drawing room.

There was a slight furze of dark hair on her forearms.

It looks as if they were burning the furze on the far side: though spring is an odd time of year to be doing so.

After which Furze said the scenes "went very well" and involved a dramatic element.

Yes, there he is, high over Furze Hill, after taking off on the far side into the wind.

I got furze and more timber and built up the fire again.

They agreed on certain signals, then started through the rest of the furze checking their time and direction.

Furze ate a few more mouthfuls with a thoughtful air.

It is used as an agent of biological pest control against the noxious weed known as common gorse (Ulex europaeus).

Gorse (Ulex europaeus) is a major invasive plant species in New Zealand and millions of dollars are spent on its control.

Common Gorse (Ulex europaeus)

Gorse (Ulex europaeus) and bramble (Rubus fruticosus) dominate on the more fertile soils.

The spread of invasive alien species such as Gorse (Ulex europaeus), brackens, and Pennisetum spp.

The Southern and Eastern slopes are carpeted with large areas of bracken and Gorse (Ulex europaeus).

European Gorse Ulex europaeus, Bramble Rubus fruticosus agg.

In 1998 as part of a biocontrol program, the gorse spider mite (Tetranychus lintearius) was first released on this site to control gorse (Ulex europaeus).

A small part of the plateau comprises open grassland with scattered Gorse Ulex europaeus and stands of Bracken Pteridium aquilinum.

Large areas are covered by scrub, dominated by gorse Ulex europaeus and blackthorn Prunus spinosa and provide habitat for invertebrates and birds.

Gorse (Ulex europaeus), a wild furze, is commonly found growing in the uplands and ferns are plentiful in the more moist regions, especially in the western parts.

The most widely familiar species is common gorse (Ulex europaeus), the only species native to much of western Europe, where it grows in sunny sites, usually on dry, sandy soils.

It grows in short turf on Wingletang Downs where some colonies are suffering from an increase of competitive grasses, gorse (Ulex europaeus) and bramble (Rubus fruticosus).

George Bennett also introduced gorse (Ulex europaeus) into the local area, which in the following decades went wild and became a nuisance in both the town and in the neighboring countryside.

It disappeared from at least six Cornish sites between 1971 and 2005 due to shading from Common Gorse Ulex europaeus and Bramble Rubus fruticosus agg.

Standard haemagglutination inhibition techniques with diluted human anti-A, anti-B, and anti-H (extracted from the lectin Ulex europaeus ) were applied with saliva at dilutions up to one in 16.

As of 11 September 2009 the SSSI was considered to be in "unconditional recovering" condition because European gorse (Ulex europaeus) and bramble (Rubus fruticosus) are at unacceptable levels.

Larval foodplants are mainly quinolizidine-bearing tribes of Fabaceae, (Ulex europaeus, Genista sp., Sarothamnus sp., Sophoreae sp., Sophora tomentosa, Carmichaeliae and Genisteae).

This is the case in England where the species seems to be on the increase and is found on dry heathland with patches of bare stony ground and among sparse Ulex europaeus and Pinus sylvestris.

Gorse Ulex europaeus, silver birch Betula pendula, pendunculate oak Quercus robur and scots pine Pinus sylvestris are scattered across the heath, in places forming extensive areas of secondary woodland and scrub.

The gravel capping supports extensive tracts of gorse Ulex europaeus with intervening areas of heathland and acid grassland dominated by heather Calluna vulgaris, bell heather Erica cinerea, purple moor-grass Molinia caerulea, bristle bent Agrostis curtisii and locally bilberry Vaccinium myrtillus.

- Gloria Taradash, Clifton, N.J. A. The plant is also called gorse or whin, and botanically it is Ulex europaeus, said Betty Scholtz, director emeritus of Brooklyn Botanic Garden, who, having led tours through the British Isles, has seen many a tourist similarly captivated.
