The omnipresent prairies do not prevent gorse bushes and heather from growing on the mountains. The Bantry Bay in Kerry County with its rather mild climate shelters certain Meditarranean and even tropical species, such as rhododendrons and lichens. The splendid Killarney National Park offers a multiplicity of flower and plant species. However, the Irish countryside, whose forests cover a mere 4% of the national territory, is very much exposed to strong winds.
