Flora (75 images)
Road verges are one of Shetland's floral surprises. They are usually ungrazed and support a wide variety of flowers absent from the pastures on the other side of the fence. Primrose, Devil's-Bit Scabious, Autumn Hawkbit and Red Campion are common, along with grasses. A walk along a winding Shetland side road in early summer is a botanist's delight.
