Our #RHSChelsea show garden is taking shape! Urquhart & Hunt – the masterminds behind this design – are busy creating a West Country wall, beaver dam, pond and lodge, water vole lawn and burrows, and even trout spawning nests. #RewildingChelsea rewildingbritain.org.uk/supp…

To mark #NationalBeeDay on Friday, the Fernery team has mixed up the Yellow One Juice - pineapple, nectarine, passion fruit and local honey. Summer in a cup! Served this weekend along with honey cake, a display by @PenrhosSpirits local honey and recipes for honey cocktails.

Enjoying the cheerful simplicity of Tulipa linifolia today! I like to trial something new every year and this was kindly given to me by @FarmerGracy. It's a bit like big, showy Dutch tulips, but more dainty! #bulbs #ontrial #tulips

A story tells of a vengeful dwarf who tried to paint the Fairy Queen’s baby green as he slept in a white #flower. A good fairy rescued the baby and swapped the paint for yellow. The poor-sighted dwarf painted the flower cradle, which became the first buttercup. #FolkloreThursday

Come over to the dark side this Sunday... discover more about bats and perhaps even see some in flight. Our Bat Walk at 8.15pm takes advantage of tech to track these shy and fascinating little mammals. Book online: stroudvalleysproject.org/eve… #VisitStroud #Stroud #WildStroud #bats

Taking time out in a garden is so good for well-being. It's why we like to work a seating area into all our designs. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #gardening #GardenDesign

The dreamy violet blue flowers of Pulsatilla vulgaris ssp. ‘Budapest’ @TheBotanics. Pasque flowers occur across the Northern Hemisphere in temperate regions, from the lowlands to the highest mountains. #Horticulture

This is filling our Plantarium with scent. Nemesia 'Wisley Vanilla', one of our favourites. Lovely pink-flushed white flowers and a knockout fragrance. Perfect for summer! #gardening #Gloucestershire
