Now these highly specialised plants and many other calcareous grassland species need our help if they are to rise again each year…" What a pleasure to write for @naturebftb on pasqueflowers, other endangered flora and fauna, and the chalk cycle on their blog this Easter.

Staking the Broad Beans April 20, 2019
The advent of warmer weather has meant that I have been able to remove the tunnel cloches from over the Broad Beans. It's just as well really, since the first row of bean plants was beginning to push up against the roofs of the cloches.I find that if Broad Beans are left unsupported they do tend to flop all over the place, so I give each plant a bamboo […]
