Last week I had the great pleasure of attending a very special booklaunch for Guy Shrubsole newest book: The Lost Rainforests of Britain. This is a beautiful work that expertly champions the call for the rejuvenation of a once-great rainforest state.

Just how good is Yarrow looking at the moment? Swathes of it on so many verges around Bournemouth! Great, late food source for insects. Photos taken along Castle Lane 30.10.22.

Legend tells that the Norse goddess Frigg gave a poor farmer a posy of flax with some seed, promising he would live and prosper until the blooms faded. When he was very old they began to wilt so he journeyed to Frigg’s mountain home and stayed with her evermore.

Over 127 years ago, Frank Giles, the nineteen-year-old son of a chemist & druggist, began a collection of British flora which has made its way into the Herbarium at Kew.
Recently rediscovered as part of the major project to digitise Kew’s collections -> bit.ly/3DPZeQd
