Longer grass, in areas protected from grazing, is inhabited by the Alpine
bartsia (
Bartsia alpina), and the Alpine sow-thistle (Cicerbita alpina), the latter being confined to the glens of Angus.
Juncus trifidus, Bistorta vivipara, Poa alpina, Dryas octopetala,
Bartsia alpina and Omalotheca supina manifest the highest association ability.

The dunes are home to over 450 plant species, including 33 that are locally or regionally rare like petalwort, seaside centaury, yellow

There are semi-parasitic plants like field lousewort, yellow rattle, red
bartsia, eyebright and common cow-wheat.
To determine whether gene transfer takes place in the opposite direction--from parasite to host--Palmer's team compared several genes from different species of the common weed genus Plantago with those in parasitic flower species of the
Bartsia and Cuscuta genera.
