Lime Green and Sage

Huge enthusiast of all the leafy, green stuff around us.
Plants, politics and pubs- preferably all 3 at the same time.

@GerardMcL @damiengayle @JustStop_Oil tbf that's exactly the point they're making - we're shocked at the idea of art being destroyed but the destruction of the ecosystem and ongoing mass human death is normal?

🔥 THOUGHT WE'D HAD ENOUGH?

💥THINK AGAIN!

JSO IS BACK FOR ROUND 5 OF #OCCUPYWESTMINSTER!

While some sleep calmly at night, the world continues to burn, energy prices climb to the hilt and this govt carries on criminally sabotaging this generation's future for corp profits!

[Just Stop Oil @JustStop_Oil]

OCCUPATION OF WESTMINSTER SET TO RESUME TOMORROW

The cost of living crisis and climate crisis are inherently one and the same — the extortionate rise in energy prices is caused by our reliance on gas. We need an immediate emergency response now.

@wizzair genuinely astounded by the appalling behaviour of Wizz air. At a time like this, to charge £80 per passenger in cancellation fees when they know people are barred from taking flights/will be forced into mandatory quarantine at their destination? Speechless.

@floodenheim @RHSWisley @BotanyRNG @readingbotany @LyuPinhui @JAjowele It was the best last day we could have asked for!! Definitely feel that even my sieve-like brain might have retained a little bit

@CathywWilson Could not agree more!!!

[Lime Green and Sage @limeandsage]

@floodenheim @readingbotany @JAjowele @LyuPinhui Exactly, you'd think that, right...!? Some mislesading Proteaceae right there 😵😵

[Lime Green and Sage @limeandsage]

4 photos showing what an absolute stunner of a family Proteaceae is. But that leaf with the red forked tip really sidelined all of us today at Kew. Plants love throwing you identification curveballs don't they 🙄 @JAjowele @LyuPinhui #proteaceae #identificationcomplications

Did you know that whilst walking in woods or forests we breathe in phytoncides! These are part of a plants natural defence having antibacterial and antifungal qualities. For humans we then generate more white blood cells boosting our own immune systems. #ThursdayThoughts

Great inspiration from @KewScience for @UniofReading @ReadingBioSci #MScPlDiv scrapbook assignment! @BotanyRNG @RNGherb @george_garnett @iamToniiChan @LyuPinhui @limeandsage @JAjowele @floodenheim

@BotanyRNG I think it's tequilana 🍸🍹

[Lime Green and Sage @limeandsage]

I was a very mean horticulturalist and abandoned this agave pup at the bottom of a bag for faaaar too long. Remembered it now, and was amazed to find it full of life and even growing a new shoot!! Totally impressed by its tenacity. Giving it some TLC now.

What a fantastic day yesterday was @buc2020 was with @LyuPinhui and @JAjowele it was all really fun&friendly&met other botanical enthusiasts, which is always great. And thank you so much @drmgoeswild @BotanyRNG we might seem half asleep sometimes, but we are listening really 🤣🤣

[Lime Green and Sage @limeandsage]

@BotanyRNG @ReadingBioSci @readingbotany @buc2020 @JAjowele @george_garnett @drmgoeswild @RNGherb @mygreenstudy @UniofReading Alastair- you once told us if we only remembered a handful of things from our Reading education, let one of them be that Gnetum is a gymnosperm!!
