I understand the Marsh Gentian can be found in the New Forest. How common is it? Can other gentian species also be found in the forest?

2 years ago I was was walking in an area called "Soldier's Bog", just south of Bratley Wood. I saw and photographed (with a low quality phone camera) some lovely dainty blue flowers. they turned out to be Marsh Gentian. I have not seen them there this year and don't know of any other places.

Bit late to reply to this one but here goes.

Marsh Gentians are locally common on the Forest, mostly on tussock heath & humid heath near valley mires, & mostly in the south of the Forest.

There are 3 other Gentian species on the Forest: Field Gentian, Autumn Gentian & one site for Early Gentian.
