The tussock grasslands contain a wide variety of rare plant ecosystems. This highly fertile flush zone in the northern Army country is the site of two rare plants – Carex berggrenii and Ranunculus recens (var). The site has been heavily degraded by horse trampling since this picture was taken in 1989, but is part of an area from which horses will hopefully be removed under the Wild Horse Management Plan.
