How about this for an idea of how to decorate your containers for winter? Find them in the Hyde Hall Winter Garden.

Inspiring talk from Sara Venn 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ she/her tonight on making community edibles incredible and accessable! I now think all rap music from Detroit about G's are giving kudos to gardeners not gangsters. #Agrihood #PesterPower #GetGrowing

Great chat with the inspiration that is Ellen Mary and great to hear the success story of My little Allotment Sending loads of positivity and green kudos to you all! 🙂

Oh it’s been worth the wait, what a beauty!

A quick stop behind the scenes in The Glasshouse RHS Garden Wisley Rhododendron veitchianum, Lachenalia and Veltheimia all doing their beautiful thing.

Great show by Alex Farrow ❎ Jericho Comedy , now all I can do is read about horseshoe crabs! Thanks for a philosophical, thought provoking and hilarious evening.

Almost burnt my hand in the compost heap today 😂 A bit of #compost bay porn for Saul Walker

#FlowersOnFriday and feeling the harvest vibes! #growyourown

The moment in which an Orangutan, Borneo’s critically endangered ape, stretched out his/her hand to help a man out of mud When the photographer uploaded the photo he wrote: 'At a time when the concept of humanity is dying in humans, animals lead us to the principles of humanity'

I didn’t want to just chuck my agapanthus seed heads I’d pruned so I wove them into a hazel wreath with hops, fading hydrangea and golden rod flowers, teasels, love in a mist seed heads, cotoneaster and crab apples for a celebration of autumn #GardensHour #HarvestFestival

I spent a blissful #WildflowerHour in our wildlife garden this afternoon, counting every wild plant still in flower; 33 species in total! Herewith, an array of those that could spare a bloom. ‘Happy Autumn wildflower hours everyone!’ ~ Spot the wildflower missing its name!

Thousands of Tunbridge Filmy-ferns (Hymenophyllum tunbrigense) dripping from the trees - I felt it was worth picking one to share its river delta frond with you. Stunningly beautiful, isn’t it? Only one cell thick, like green cling film, a lover of damp places & shady tree trunks

Some people who make money from digging and selling peat claim plants don’t grow as well in peat free compost. But what do they think all the plants in the world grow in? Soil is mainly rock and peat free compost, that’s why peat bogs are so precious, there aren’t very many.

Disappointed by the abrupt manner of customer service today @BasildonParkNT Such a shame when there is so much potential, but it is masked with such rudeness.

Judas tree - an extraordinary tree whose flowers grow straight from the trunk

This combination caught my eye today, Anthriscus 'Ravenswing' with Eremurus 'White Beauty'

Kernels showing the diversity of walnuts (Juglans and Carya; Juglandaceae) from across the northern hemisphere

At the 19th National Science and Technology Week, the Seed Laboratory of the Botanical Garden of Rio de Janeiro presented the diversity of sizes, shapes and colors of seeds conserved in its Seed Bank.

Amazing how a relatively inconspicuous understory shrub like Maple-Leaved #Viburnum (V. acerifolium) goes *next level* with fall color and #anthocyanin production before leaf drop. Plants on sunny forest edges turn dazzling shades of pink, purple & lavender blue - wow!
