@donnarainey4.bsky.social wild flower meadow in full bloom and sp pleased with it this year. Absolutely buzzing with life. @plantlifeuk.bsky.social
July meadow . Early purple orchids seeds maturing . They are like dust but with further investigation using a x40 lens on my microscope you can see them more clearly . @donnarainey4.bsky.social @plantlifeuk.bsky.social @orchids.bsky.social
Finally decided to cut one section of my meadow with the sythe . Then check for frogs (x10 of various sizes) to relocate to a safe spot and finally mow. Some seeds also collected to pot up and germinate to increase late flowering Devils bit scabious @plantlife.bsky.social @plantlifeuk.bsky.social
