Bewick and Beanley Moors in association with old collapsing heather bushes. Conifer plantations aside, the moors have little woodland cover; what exists is found on the boundaries and following the paths of streams at lower elevations. Spwecies include alder ("Alnus glutinosa"), hawthorn ("Crataegus monogyna"), brown birch ("Betula pubescens"), rowan ("Sorbus aucuparia") and occasional ash ("Fraxinus excelsior"), and ground-cover of yellow pimpernel ("Lysimachia nemorum"), wood sorrel ("Oxalis acetosella") and smooth-stalked sedge ("Carex laevigata"). As with the bogs, so the woodland also provide transition locations, such as from wet birch-wood to purple moor-grass or to bogs of lesser pond-sedge ("Carex acutiformis"). Other wood species found include
× Sorbaronia mitschurinii also marketed for their antioxidant properties. Other intergeneric hybrids within tribe Maleae that include "Sorbus" as one of the parents are: × Sorbaronia mitschurinii × "Sorbaronia mitschurinii, also known as Sorbaronia mitschurinii", is a domesticated species that was known until recently under the name "Aronia mitschurinii". It has been considered to be a group of cultivars of "Aronia melanocarpa", common ones including 'Viking' and 'Nero'. Genetic testing indicates it is likely a hybrid between "A. melanocarpa" and "Sorbus aucuparia" (mountain ash) that apparently originated in cultivation. It has been suggested that "Sorbaronia mitschurinii" is the product of Russian pomologist Ivan
