Just realised I posted a screenshot of the graph, not the graph itself!! Here it is…

Can you find a flowering member of the Asteraceae or Daisy family? That’s the challenge this week for #wildflowerhour! Share your finds this Sunday 8-9pm using the hashtag #DaisyFamily. Happy flower hunting!

I delight in the fact that, amongst the many thousands of Common Knapweed plants in our meadow, one - and only one - is pure white #DaisyFamily #Wildflowerhour

We’ve had a request for this week’s #wildflowerhour challenge to repeat #WhiteForm, where you find the white variant of wildflowers, check out Trevor the botanist pure white Common Knapweed for inspiration or shall we have a new one -#ClimbingPlants? You decide, vote below!!👇

‘Holy grail’ ghost orchid rediscovered in UK for the first time since 2009 theguardian.com/environment/ar…

Huge thanks to top environmental journalist Helena Horton for covering the #GhostOrchid story in today's The Guardian theguardian.com/environment/ar… Congrats to Dr Richard Bate on refinding this most elusive of orchids & to Kevin Walker who visited the (secret) site to verify the find.

I’m speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live later today about my recent Ghost Orchid find - the second UK sighting in 37 years. It’s wonderful to see genuine enthusiasm about the find and plants in general - if you want to know more about plants please check out BSBI: Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland and consider membership

Yay! Just walked into the greenhouse and found my Golden Lotus Banana (Musa lasiocarpa) has decided to flower. It’s a tough little thing, having recovered from severe drought last year, and is producing loads of pups for the future #gardening #tropicalplants #bananas

A new challenge this week! #ClimbingPlants! Can you find a flowering wild or naturalised plant that has a climbing habit?! 🧗Share your finds for #wildflowerhour this Sunday 8-9pm

Thrilled to find a massive population of 430 Field Gentian plants at Aberffraw #Anglesey where there were none last year (thanks to the drought) ! Rabbit poo for scale. Surveying sites for speciesrecoverytrust #wildflowerhour

A striking new species for me, Desert bluebells (Phacelia campanularia) - not quite wild but appeared in an urban ‘wildflower’ mix in Conwy (along with a *lot* of Fat Hen!) #wildflowerhour

Alternate phyllotaxy in Hazel never looked so good #botany #leaves #photography

Excellent news. CumbriaWildlifeTrust buys Skiddaw. " ‘A 100-year vision’: Skiddaw’s barren peak to spring to life in ambitious rewilding". theguardian.com/uk-news/articl…
