This photo shows a close up view of the wildflower information board at the east side of Bracknell Bus Station. It has the following wording: Bracknell Bus Station wildflower area This bank has been transformed with a mixture of wildflower turf and seeds. This will ensure a colourful display from spring through to late summer. These wildflowers provide a rich nectar source for pollinating insects such as bees, butterflies and other insects which are going through population decline nationally. Bracknell Forest Council, working in partnership with Continental Landscapes Limited, is committed to contributing to the reversal of this decline and will manage green spaces across the borough to improve their wildlife potential. Flowers present in this turf include: images from left to right. Common knapweed Musk mallow Devil's bit scabious Yarrow Lady's bedstraw Red clover Tufted vetch Bracknell Forest has many wildflower sites around the borough, many of them in areas around the town centre, including underpasses and roundabouts. Keep an eye out for the butterfly signs dotted about, or take a look at our website at www.bracknell-forest.gov.uk. This wildflower meadow is sponsored and maintained by Continental Landscapes Ltd.
