Wald-Bingelkraut
Burgate Wood is a Site of Special Scientific Interest SSSI. Its are particularly good example of the type of oak-hornbeam woodland characteristic of this part of north Suffolk. It is ancient, with a coppice-with-standards structure and continues to support entirely semi-natural stands. Many giant coppiced stools are present which indicate its great antiquity. The ground flora is diverse and includes several species that are indicators of ancient woodland, including one rarity. The ground flora contains much Dog's Mercury ("Mercurialis perennis") with frequent Primrose ("Primula vulgaris"), Enchanter's Nightshade ("Circaea lutetiana"), Sanicle ("Sanicula europaea") and Water Avens ("Geum rivale"). A number of uncommon species are present including Herb Paris ("Paris quadrifolia"), Yellow Archangel ("Lamiastrum galeobdolon"), Hairy Woodrush ("Luzula pilosa") and the rare Lungwort ("Pulmonaria officinalis").
