The bog currently hosts a large community of cranberry, pitcher plant, sundew, and cotton grass. Typical plants include pitcher plants, sundew, cotton grass, and poison sumac. Characteristic bog plants include sphagnum mosses, cotton grass and cross-leaved heath. Here, plant species like cross-leaved heath, cotton grass and various species of sphagnum moss thrive. Cotton grass is a distinctive plant which grows in the boggy areas. In these areas sedges, cotton grass, and mosses are common. Its main constituent materials are sphagnum moss, cotton grass, deer grass, heather and sedge. Boggy areas support cotton grass, marsh orchid, sundew and bog asphodel. Examples of these include the slender cotton grass and lesser water plantain. Within the tundra, some dominant plant species include lichen, cotton grass, and Arctic willow. In Europe these plants include&colon; creeping willow, cotton grass, yellow iris, reeds, and rushes. Rusty cotton grass farther down the trail flourishes.
