My favourite #plantoftheday at #Westonbirt was this amazingly eye-catching #rhododendron augustinii, with glowing violet blue flowers. As a species, it can be quite variable, but the Westonbirt specimens are spectacular.

I have added it to my 'must have' list.

My plant of the moment - Ligularia Othello - hardy, big purple new leaves turning dark green, orange daisy flowers in clusters, loved by pollinators.

Today's #plantoftheday is these strawberries starting to flower! I love how the flies and bees start to congregate. Really chases the last of the winter chill out of the heart!

Plants of the day and art of the day! I love this little moment of peace in my bathroom! Makes my heart happy!

Art is mixed media glass and acrylic made from salvaged material.

A friend brought me this bizarre plant from Estonia. It doesn't need soil and has to be lightly sprayed with water once a day. It's usually greyish white but turns ivory white when watered. Been growing at an incredible rate, just hanging there from a window in sunlight. Does anyone here know more about this? It's wonderfully confusing how this plant even lives. #askfediverse #askmastodon #askfedi #botany #plant #PlantOfTheDay #plantscience #phoneshot
#PlantOfTheDay The Amazon Lily above my desk in the lab is blooming! Eucharis amazonica is a native of Peru from the Amaryllidaceae family, making it a relative of daffodils and rain-lilies.
#PlantOfTheDay love the colors of an autumn #Gingko tree (Ginkgo biloba)
