It seems the majority agree with me!

Great to see Bokashi on #GardenersWorld ⁦BBC Gardeners World⁩. We’re big fans & use it to compost all food waste. Pics show how we make our own bran as Bokashi bran expensive . After tonight’s program, we’ll be producing our own microorganisms too!

Yesterday, I posted about a cheap fire pit I purchased to turn into a bird bath..... nearly 200 trail cam clips later, it's safe to say it's a big hit! I will mount a live stream camera on here tomorrow! I'm amazed how much it was used today! #GwylltHollow

So, #WildflowerHour asks for #climbingplants. Here in central #Lymington are hops, Humulus lupulus, giving a glimpse of the town’s social history. Hops are dioecious with separate male & female flowers. These familiar hops are female, always spiralling clockwise #wildflower_hour

Shiny brown conkers emerging from their spiny green cases. Fewer this year with most leaves attacked by leaf miners (top left) I collect, crush & store them (lower right). They contain saponins so make a good natural detergent #fruits #WildflowerHour

My aconites are stunning and the Tree Bumblebees love them. Aconite’s alkaloids are highly toxic so how do bumblebees survive? Interesting info here! #GardensHour tinyurl.com/3terye28
