Description: Path through Kelling Heath In mid April the gorse is flowering profusely. Gorse is closely related to the brooms and all species have yellow flowers, some with a very long flowering season. The only species native in most of western Europe is Common Gorse (Ulex europaeus). Common Gorse flowers most profusely in spring, but it bears flowers throughout the year and there is an old saying that when gorse is out of blossom, kissing is out of fashion. Other names for gorse are furse, whin and furze. For more information see Gorse
