Very happy to spot a Marbled white butterfly on ou

Very happy to spot a Marbled white butterfly on our local nature reserve - a limestone grassland which is now a fabulous display of wildflowers including Field scabious, Birdsfoot trefoil and Common knapweed in flower. The Knapweed is a favourite for the Marbled white.😊
Bees and butterflies are abundant with the Chalkhill blue and Common blue butterflies starting to appear too also loving the knapweeds 🦋
Such a lovely pastime on a Summer evening walk to add in a little butterfly spotting so why not take part in the Big butterfly count starting this weekend. It just takes 15minutes of your time to record any butterflies you see in your garden, park or outdoor space #bigbutterflycount

The delicate pale pink flower head of Common Valer

The delicate pale pink flower head of Common Valerian.
This pretty perennial will grow in sun or part shade and most soil types too.
It’s great at the back of a border - as it can grow to 1.5m over time - a wildflower garden or meadow where it will flower from June - August attracting pollinators to the sweet scented blooms.
Traditionally it has been used in herbal medicine, so if you’re looking to create an Apothecary garden this one could be in the mix !

It’s the time of year for Knapweeds to take cent

It’s the time of year for Knapweeds to take centre stage. As some of the early summer wildflowers start to fade, we love the vibrant purple the Knapweeds bring to a sunny wildflower garden, meadow or grassland.🥰

The fluffy seed clock head of Salsify. Here today,

The fluffy seed clock head of Salsify. Here today, gone tomorrow!
So many wildflowers have interesting and attractive seed heads after flowering and as summer progresses it’s a great time to find all shapes and sizes of seed heads.
The delicate seed head of Salsify is very short lived however as it is readily dispersed by wind.
It’s well worth letting the seeds spread for another year to enjoy the vivid Purple blooms. They appear on tall stems May-June and often will surprise you when they suddenly open on a sunny day #salsify #wildflowerseedheads #wildflowerwonder #purplewildflower #tragopogonporrifolius

Bird’s foot trefoil is one of our favourite bee

Bird’s foot trefoil is one of our favourite bee friendly wildflowers.
Looking at its best on a sunny day, the abundance of egg - yolk yellow flowers will attract a host of bees in search of nectar.
It’s so versatile, growing well on a range of soil types and loves the sun.
Perfect for a garden meadow, a lawn, roadside verge and even in small spaces such as a balcony or sunny patio.
In addition to attracting pollinators,Birdsfoot trefoil is also an important food plant for the caterpillars of several butterflies such as the Common blue.
Top of the list for a wildlife garden! Link in bio
