Working on reusable and recyclable wrapping this year to avoid the standard wrap that often contains plastics which means it can't be recycled.

Came across this burning bush on our afternoon walk - love this time of year when salix and cornus really get into their stride...

Seed saving is so satisfying - these are Dwarf French Bean 'Yin Yang', destined for the veggie beds next year.

Lovely afternoon at the Savoy: delicious food, fun company and nominated as a finalist in the Garden Media Guild Blog of the Year Award. Great day! 😊

The season of crusts and jellies - Part 2: crusts December 8, 2018
The other day I described a few of the jelly fungi that you can see during the Winter. Today I'm going to cover some so-called crust fungi. My loose definition of this term includes a couple that are really brackets, not crusts!A crust fungus is often resupinate for at least part of its lifecycle.
