The BEST plant hunt of the year!!!! Have you signed up yet? #WildflowerHour
Only 9 hours until #NewYearPlantHunt starts!
Have you planned your Hunt yet? You could hunt with friends & family, go solo (enjoy some quiet time!) or join one of these group hunts: bsbi.org/new-year-pla...
Main thing is to enjoy hunting for/recording wild & naturalised plants blooming in midwinter.
