Sunday 28th April is the #InternationalDayOfTheDandelion & we are celebrating it with this week’s #WildflowerHour challenge! Post pics of Dandelions, interesting facts or share examples of how important it is for wildlife using the hashtag #DandelionChallenge, this Sunday 8-9pm!
How sad that @thurrockcouncil celebrated #EarthDay by strimming the remaining long grass on top of last weeks mow, removing all the wildflowers + insects in it. They've left the grass where they cut it, so it doesn't even look neat,which I assume was the purpose of cutting it!?
Very exciting news- Pyramidal Bugle (Ajuga pyramidalis), new for the Isle of Mull! I found a few plants whilst out scrambling/ climbing / exploring a couple of days ago, went back the next day and found over 100 plants in two separate areas!
Pond Water-crowfoot (Ranunculus peltatus), Small-flowered Buttercup (Ranunculus parviflorus) and Early Forget-me-not (Myosotis ramosissima) and Blinks (Montia fontana) from the @BSBIbotany recorders meeting this weekend. Loton, Shropshire. 21.04.24. #Wildflowerhour #VC40
Want to up your plant identification skills this summer? @BSBIScotland has a plethora of events to offer this year! 🌿🌷 From beginners to advanced students, there's something for everyone, but BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL so grab your place now. bsbi.org/scotland
Good morning, and welcome to a new week! Our orchid tours to Rhodes and Sicily are finished, and we're delighted to confirm we've made our first donations to our friends at @BSBIbotany, to support the important conservation research work they undertake. (1/2)
It’s not just the wildflower-rich grasslands that are coming back to life in Netherley Park. Just look at these beautiful English Bluebells (Hyacinthoides non-scripta), Lord’s-and-Ladies (Arum maculatum) & Thin-spiked Wood Sedge (Carex strigosa) within the park’s woodlands! 😍🌱
Fingered Speedwell, Veronica triphyllos, photographed in its stronghold in the Brecks yesterday for #wildflowerhour. Most were seeding but there were still a few in flower. @BSBIbotany
@theobrook230 @BSBIbotany Look out for my new book, which after a false start should be available late May! That will help as it deals with the most widespread species only (on GB&I scale) but has a road map key to aid id. @PrincetonNature press.princeton.edu/books/paperbac…
Delighted to have re-found Killarney Fern where it was 1st recorded in Co. Clare by Thomas Hughes Corry in 1879. I presented this and other recent fieldwork highlights at a fantastic @BSBI_Ireland Spring Conference 2024 yesterday at the National Botanic Gardens.
A very cute Rue-leaved Saxifrage (Saxifraga tridactylites) seen somehow growing in bare rock and managing to produce a single flower - on Portland last week 🤍 @BSBIbotany @wildflower_hour

Nice to meet lots of botanists at the @BSBIbotany Recorders Meeting at the weekend. Interesting talks @PrestonMontford and a productive recording outing including this beautiful little Myosotis ramosissima (Early Forget-me-not)
@wildflower_hour @BSBIbotany Here's one a little early. Will be posting more on Sunday too. #DandelionChallenge
@wildflower_hour @donnarainey4 @BSBIbotany I won't be online on Sunday so I'll share a couple of examples of how dandelions support biodiversity. The first is an Ashy Mining Bee feeding on a dandelion near Galway city #DandelionChallenge @NatureRTE 1/2
I know it's not #thicktrunktuesday but this Large-leaved Lime tucked away in the middle of Bedford Purlieus NNR is a truly magnificent tree, looking particularly wonderful as its soft new leaves unfurl. @BSBIbotany @ForestryComm @NE_WestAnglia
Lovely to see Yellow Pimpernel Lysimachia nemorum, local Ancient Woodland. Attractive pointed saucer shaped flowers, lens shaped sepal gaps. Named after Macedonian King Lysimachus who fed them to Oxen to calm them down @BSBIbotany @wildflower_hour #wildflowerhour
Probably under-recorded, the Early Spider Orchid is sparse on the Isle of Wight. Only saw two today (well past their best, but in full bloom this time 2 years ago) - How variable the years can be. @HantsIWWildlife @BSBIbotany

@Lophophanes @BSBIbotany Interesting choice of roadside planting!
@CommonByNature @BSBIbotany I counted ten main trees yesterday; they vary in size a bit but probably all the same age. Would be interesting to know who planted them, why, when, and where they got them from!
Stopped off to see the suckering European White-elms (Ulmus laevis) found by @Lophophanes. A new one for the #urbanflora and me! 😁🌳

@smurfett722 @BSBIbotany @ukorchids That one is not blackened. It is a peloric example where the petals have taken on the lip characteristics. Nice find! 🙂
