Its varied flora include water horsetail, sedge and bogbean.

The water horsetail reproduces both by spores and vegetatively by rhizomes.

In the reen grow water horsetail, reedmace, marsh marigold and azure damselfly.

Equisetum fluviatile, or "water horsetail"

The water horsetail has the largest central hollow of the horsetails, with 80% of the stem diameter typically being hollow.

This may be a corrie tarn which has silted up over time, extensive shallows being colonised by sedge, water horsetail and yellow water lilly.

An inventory in 1998 documented common reed, water horsetail, Menyanthes, yellow water-lily, white water-lily, floating-leaf pondweed, and flatleaf bladderwort.

The water horsetail has historically been used by both Europeans and Native Americans for scouring, sanding, and filing because of the high silica content in the stems.

Wildlife includes plants such as water horsetail, common spotted orchid; and woodland butterflies including Eurasian White Admiral and Silver-washed Fritillary.

A wide variety of species occur, including water horsetail, Equisetum fluviatile, celery-leaved crowfoot, Ranunculus sceleratus, sharp-flowered rush, Juncus acutiflorus, and great pond sedge, Carex riparia.

The damming of streams, digging for marl, and quarrying have produced several large ponds containing, particularly in former marl pits, localised rafts of broad-leaved pondweed Potamogeton natans, beds of bulrush (reedmace) Typha latifolia and water horsetail Equisetum fluviatile.

The water horsetail (Equisetum fluviatile), also known as the swamp horsetail, is a perennial horsetail that commonly grows in dense colonies along freshwater shorelines or in shallow water, growing in ponds, swamps, ditches, and other sluggish or still waters with mud bottoms.
