I found some in central Hants too - took me a while as it looked completely different to the neat, showy tufts I’ve found before in the summer

A terrace of Whorl-grass comes close though!

Thanks! @jimhorsfall.bsky.social suggested Fusarium heterosporum - is that just the name of the teleomoroh so +/- the same thing? Also - great to read about the connection with gibberelin - I knew the name rang a bell!

E.g. on a dev I know - 1 pl JC w/ pops of Heath Speedwell, Common Rock-rose, Goldenrod, Wild Strawberry, Field Woundwort - all NT. Guess which plant gets the bespoke mitigation and its own translocation site. The others will be lucky to get a spade and a wheelbarrow and a corner by the dog poo bins

Brilliant - looks very much like it - many thanks!

Would that be Potamogeton gramineus by any chance?

Great track - has that crucial dash of melancholia that the rest (brilliant though they are) lack. Not sure if my dying field is drumming, folk music or botany, or whether I qualify as an expert in any of them, but appreciate the song as a sort of immaculate, shiny 3’30” cosplay window

Have wonderful memories of you all when Bellowhead first started out. That night at Whitchurch Folk Club North Shropshire when Pete Flood was setting his windup mechanical toys loose on the small stage & you said all us clapping along should dance & thus a big conga round the small hall happened. :)
