Read it through once
There are, for instance, such flowers as Sea-pink (_Armeria_), Sea Plantain (_Plantago maritima_), Scurvy-grass, and others, which can be found on windy, desolate gullies and corries high up on the Highland hills, and which also occur on the sea-coast, but _never between the seashore and the tops of the mountains_. You might search every field, every moor, and every riverside throughout the country, but you would not discover those three plants anywhere between the seashore and the summits.
