Feeling slightly better today, due in part to the wonder I felt at seeing a hundred foot c**k and b**ls made of starlings flying over Brighton Pier.

Upset about #Swanscombe Marshes becoming a theme park? It's not the only East London riverside site to be earmarked for retail, leisure & housing development. A competition aims to transform the 100 ha of Thamesmead into "a destination for natural living" https://t.co/A5GEJDyLbX

Fallen leaves of #Magnolia macrophylla (Big-leaf Magnolia) reveal their silvery undersides at #SmithCollegeBotanicGarden today. This species apparently has the largest simple leaf of any tree native to North America, up to ~75 cm long!

Bad customer service when you expect your bulbs to be shipped by now, call to ask when they will be shipped and they cannot say when , then ask to have them shipped immediately and are told that's not possible either. Why order from them ever again?

Autumn leaves 🍁😍

I took several Begonia luxurians cuttings today
Here’s how I prepare them remove the lower leaves never pull them off always cut about 1cm away from the stem this will then drop off in a few days. I then reduce the leaf that’s left by about half ,then pop it in water to root 🌱

Do you ever see something so beautiful, it sends a bolt of electricity through you? These fly agaric mushrooms did today at Harcourt Arboretum.

The Japanese have been producing wood for 700 years without cutting down trees. In the 14th century, the extraordinary daisugi technique was born in Japan. Applying this technique to cedars,the wood obtained is uniform,straight and without knots,perfect for construction....
