Hedge I laid with my hedgelaying students 2 years ago in Friends of Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park scrapyard meadow. Looking nice and bushy and full of vigour. The hedgehogs will approve I’m sure!

On the Nomura green roof today and counted around 60 Bee Wolf nest burrows in the Sandy nesting mounds. Lots of bumblebees battling the wind to forage on Echium and kidney vetch. #worldgreenroofday
