Blackthorn - an introduced species

North Gare Sand Dunes - Older Dune Ridge by geographyalltheway_photos.

Dune ridges become progressively lower inland as the sand supply diminishes. Dunes become grey in colour as humus builds up and moisture retention increases. Soil acidity increases. The environment here is less harsh. There is shelter, fresh water and soil. Many new species appear - creeping williow, sea buckthorn, ragwort, fescue grass are all species that could be found in this type of area. Marram grass dies out.
