If you buy plants over Easter or afterwards, please source them from a #peatfree nursery, so peatland stays intact with its rare ecosystems & vast carbon-storing potential. There are over 140 growers across the UK on the Peat Free Nurseries List & the number is constantly growing. #gardening #nature

Brilliant news on a Friday afternoon: gov will launch new natural history GCSE. It's taken Mary Colwell, @carolinelucas.bsky.social & others years of campaigning. (I'm praying it'll be introduced quickly enough for my children!)

I must have walked by this fence hundreds of times but today I noticed that the posts are crowned with little snail sculptures of varying sizes and poses.

Yellow Eye O Yellow Eye
Yellow as the yellow Moon.
Out of the Black Hole of the North
The Ice Age is flying!
The Moon is flying low-
The Moon looms, hunting her Hare-
The Moon drops down, big with frost
And hungry as the end of the world.

I'm wondering if the charity shop will realise... (part 3). Da Vinci meets Tretchikoff's "Green Lady." I had to paint all of this one from scratch. Plus all floral ornamentation replaced by 70s cigarette/booze brands. I might make this one available as a print.
