A fairly common plant in Drenthe: Veenpluis. Peat fluff is a plant of the cyper grass family. The plant grows in moist, acidic soil, such as heather and peat. It forms turf there with the help of suckers. A striking feature is the long, white fruit fluff, from which the name is derived. It is fairly common locally in Drenthe, the Kempen and the Ardennes. Elsewhere in Belgium and the Netherlands, peat fluff is rare to very rare. nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veenpluis

Beautiful walking around the former camp Westerbork, the old water treatment plant is still hidden deep in the forest, and is worth a look.

The woods around Camp Westerbork are just as much a part of history as the camp itself. There is peace and a walk through the woods is therefore recommended.
