Since the discovery of DNA sequencing technology, scientists have had to rethink fern taxonomy. Lycophytes - Quillworts, Clubmosses & Spikeworts, are more distantly related to Ferns, while Horsetails are more closely related to Ferns.🌿

Britain boasts two native oak species: Sessile Oak & Pedunculate Oak.🌳 Their subtle differences, like leaf attachment, help with ID. Sessile Oak leaves have an obvious stem, but Pedunculate Oak leaves have little to no stem.🍃

It’s the 1st of May, which means it’s time to lock up the lawn mower and take part in #NoMowMay! 🌱🌻
A healthy lawn with some long grass and wildflowers benefits wildlife, tackles pollution and can even lock away carbon below ground.
