There are many interesting
plants growing in the varied habitats around Bay Farm.
In spring the wild Cherry blossom and the May Flowers provide extra
colour to the woods and in the autumn the leaves of the Cherry Trees
turn a wonderful red colour after the first frosts.
In the spring the woods along the shores of the bay
are full of Primroses, Bluebells, Wood Cranesbill, Herb Robert and
Green Alkenet. Dog Violets and the occasional Early Purple Orchid
flower in the old quarry.

In May and June along the stoney shore below
the cottages you will see pink Thrift, Sea Milkwort,
yellow flowers of
Silverweeds, white sweet smelling Scurvy Grass, Camomile, Knapweed and
Hawksbeard.

In summer, the grass is carpeted with
wild flowers such as Eyebright, Birdseye Speedwell, Trefoil, Stitchwort
and Forget-me-not, as can be seen in this picture of the old track leading down to the shore of Munlochy bay.
