Symphyotrichum 'Little Carlow' looks truly magnificent at the moment. One of the best asters I grow on my allotment #plants #flowers #autumn

Sorbus pseudovilmorinii berries to brighten up our morning.

Right! I have given up for the day... there is only so much patience I could conjure up to face the horizontal rain... soaked right through to the pants!!! Something cheerful from yesterday 😊

Phlox paniculata 'Blue Paradise' in the Grass Garden today. The flowers are a deeper blue than they appear in the photograph and the scent is gorgeous.

Spring! Also, officially light enough in the morning for me to take a picture or two on my way out to work. #spring #hassprung

[Chris Howell @christophhowell]

A plant often taken for granted but look at this show~ Bergenia cordifolia enjoying the sunshine today @BhamBotanicalGd

[Chris Howell @christophhowell]

Delicate looking but a tough little spring beauty which enjoys dappled shade ~ Corydalis solida subsp. solida 'Beth Evans' @BhamBotanicalGd

Here's a question.
Name one plant you would give to a confirmed non-gardening friend to spark their interest?

RT @WildlifeTrusts: Please consider leaving dead plants in your garden over winter - they provide sheltered spots for hibernating ladybirds and other creatures 🐞 #GreenSpaceTips #wildlife #gardening

[Pineview Plants @ColinMoat1]

Eranthis hyamelis ‘Zitronenfalter’ left and ‘Pauline’ on the right

[Will's Allotment @Lymmallotment]

Plenty of bees flying around the snowdrops today. These are Galanthus ‘David Shackleton’, G. ‘Ant’ & G. Cliff Curtis’. Looking forward to collecting lots of seeds over the coming months! #snowdrops #galanthus 😀🐝

For those that have never come across the destructive vine weevil ... long may it stay that way ... for everyone else here’s a blog I wrote about them a wee while ago ...

The deep blue, star-shaped flowers of Ipheion 'Jessie' look almost too perfect.

[Chris Howell @christophhowell]

I'm looking for 3 multi stemmed Betula pendula 'Purpurea' to add to the Grass Garden @BhamBotanicalGd. If anyone has any stock (reasonably priced) please let me know.

[Guy Barter @GuyBarter]

The hellebores of @RHSWisley are emerging abundantly now - no sign IMHO of any deleterious effects from drought last summer
