A bit "will we? Won't we?" for our plot this morning. But 🌧 held off so we did. Forgot a 'before' photo, but we made a difference 🌺🌹🌱! Loved seeing so many 🐞 larvae. @HalesOwenWI2016 @HalesowenBloom @HalesowenBID @HOEInBloom @RHSBloom

Loads of mature ivy on our plot🐦🦋🐝🐞🕷🕸

Please don't cut back ivy too hard in your garden! Right now, it's superb nesting habitat for birds. In autumn, its flowers will offer late-season food for pollinators like bees, butterflies, hoverflies. Then it'll offer winter berries for birds 🐝



A good morning at the plot, lots in bloom🌺🌸🌼. And....Welcome to Jan!.... great to have a new volunteer! Especially on Environment & Conservation day within #VolunteersWeek2021. @HalesOwenWI2016 @HalesowenBloom @HalesowenBID @HOEInBloom @RHSBloom

Time to tweet or get off the plot! We will not doing the latter. We love our @HalesowenBloom @RHSBloom plot. After limited visits last year, it was great to restart regular meet ups early May. It's only tweeting I've neglected (sorry, fellow WIn Bloomers!)

Do you have a floral art or gardening success story to share? Perhaps you have engaged with local community groups or recently started an allotment and would like to inspire others to do the same. Share your stories with: [email protected]

When watering tonight noticed a new door! Welcome, new fairy family. And thank you to the door installer (s) (identity unknown!). Our landscaping & community efforts must be making the area appeal as an 'up and coming area'.

Take action to protect our bees during #BeesNeedsWeek using our pollinator friendly, seasonal planting guide. This was created by gardening experts at the WI as part of our #SOSforHoneybees campaign: thewi.org.uk/__data/assets/…

Feels like a long battle hard fought to get lavender & achillea/yarrow going during all rain & no sun, then the flip of all sun & no rain. But today all the little 'uns that filled a car months ago are suddenly looking so much bigger & blooming!

We are still working on our little pond creation for our wildlife garden at home. I’ve created some little toadstool fairy tree stumps for my two nature loving kids to sit and watch, observe and draw the wildlife that visits our garden x so excited to see what turns up 🐞🐝🐸
