Crocus flower from late-winter to early spring, providing a much-needed source of nectar and pollen for queen bumblebees emerging from hibernation. This lawn has a blend of Crocus × cultorum 'Pickwick' (purple-striped flowers with orange stamens and stigma), Crocus x cultorum 'Jeanne D'Arc' (white flowers with a purple stain) and Crocus vernus 'Flower Record' (purple flowers).

Some more fun from #September @The_RHS @RHSWisley. This time it is #Pittosporum #cloudpruned to make these lovely #blobs. I think it is Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Purpureum’, though didn’t check. Another example of great #planting at #Wisley. Good to see. #plants #shrubs #garden (at RHS Garden Wisley) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjLVj2BKg4Q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A blasted heath, beware of the moth, I'm judging a new competition for writers of creative non-fiction and memoir, a little horse. Also, a love of old derelict places, including a splendid abandoned airfield https://mailchi.mp/fe860ea17ac3/a-blasted-heath-beware-of-the-moth-im-judging-another-book-competition-see-me-at-lbf-a-little-horse

The early, self fertile flowers of Prunus persica var. nectarina 'Humboldt' (nectarine 'Humboldt') will produce fruit with a golden flesh that has a rich flavour. This cultivar is considered a heavy cropper. The tree is being fan trained in the protected environment of a glasshouse so if there are no bees evident the flowers are best pollinated with a paintbrush.
