The main habitat on the site is chalk grassland, largely dominated by Upright Brome (''Bromus erectus''). Species present which have a particular affinity for the chalk habitat include Chalk milkwort (''Polygala calcarea''), Horseshoe Vetch (''Hippocrepis comosa'') and Autumn Gentian (''Gentianella amarella''). Several scarce and notable species occur including Round-headed Rampion (''Phyteuma tenerum''), Bastard-toadflax (''Thesium humifusum''), Fly Orchid (''Ophrys insectifera''), Fragrant Orchid (''Gymnadenia conopsea''), Lesser Butterfly Orchid (''Platanthera bifolia''), Frog orchid(''Coeloglossum viride''), Musk orchid (''Herminium monorchis'') and unusually, for a downland site, Marsh Helleborine (''Epipactis palustris''). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Morgan's Hill」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
