Holme Moor and Clean Moor support a range of habitats associated with high water tables. Swamp and calcareous flush plant communities with a very restricted distribution in Somerset are present. Further diversity is provided by areas of marshy grassland and broadleaved semi-natural woodland. An unusual feature of the ground flora is the abundance of Marsh-marigold (Caltha palustris).[1]
