Item Information

Title:
Menemsha Hills - Hudsonia Bluff
Description:
Hudsonia ericoides, or false heather on the Menemsha Hills, Chilmark. Formerly restricted to such exposed sites, Hudsonia spread widely on sandy soils with deforestation and farming. With the abandonment of farming and regrowth of woody plants and eventually forests it has declined widely across the coastal region.
