A botanical double whammy on tonight’s Countryfile! Nice one James HM 😁

I don’t have a lawn to accommodate #LawnFlowers so instead I’m celebrating #NoMowMay by showcasing some of the lovely verges in #Liskeard where @cornwallcouncil let #Wildflowers bloom all summer. #WildflowerHour .

Gold stars to whoever just mowed the edge of the verge to allow this glorious display of Buttercups. 💛 #LawnFlowers #WildflowerHour

A fabulous #WildFlowerHour , so many gorgeous flowers in bloom & great to see all those #LawnFlowers that benefited from #NoMowMay !
Huge thanks to all of you who shared pix, to Rebecca Wheeler 👇who set tonight's wildflowerhour challenge & to Trevor the botanist who created #NoMowMay !

It's wonderful to see that the communal gardens by my flat have been doing #NoMowMay , with #LawnFlowers including Dove's-foot cranesbill, Spotted medick and Red deadnettle. #WildFlowerHour

Had a great day out yesterday leading the North Worcestershire Flora Group around the Worcs Wildlife Trust Knapp and Papermill reserve. We even managed to refind Greater Broomrape (Orobanche rapum-genistae) which hasn't been recorded there since 1993! #wildflowerhour
