The subsoil, which consists of cooled lava, is populated by gorse. The exciting thing about this plant is below (although it is very impressive that a bush grows like a tree):
With its roots, the gorse is able to gradually break up the rock and thus prepare the soil for other plants, especially those with deeper roots, such as trees, and make it possible for them to grow!
