  1. I'm never confident with the various species with green, inconspicuous flowers. I think this one's Mugwort. #Swindon station on Friday morning, on the waste ground by platform 4. #WildflowerHour #CommonNames #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  2. One of the most widely-used #CommonNames in the UK is Old Man's Beard for the seed heads of Clematis. It has other names too, but that's the one everyone knows. This one was clambering over a patch of neglected concrete at #Swindon station on Friday. #WildflowerHour #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  3. On Friday morning my train was late so I explored #Swindon station looking for plants with interesting #CommonNames. Of course Butterfly Bush (aka Buddleia) was everywhere, including this one poking through a fence and making a nice #WildflowerHour image. #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  4. The mandatory Fleabane photo for #WildflowerHour. Taken last night just after sunset with the ISO dialled up as far as it would go. Rather pleased with how this image ended up.

  5. This #weekend will be our regular Record Fair in #Swindon at Swindon Hub Community Centre.
    Festival Trade will be missing this one, but instead I will be at #Festival On The Farm for the weekend.
    I may post some photos or videos, but it all depends on the Internet connections in the field.

  7. RE: mastodon.social/@richardjeffer

    I volunteer in a French museum and cultural heritage center and can say: this work makes happy. It's pure joy and you find a community. If you are in or near #Swindon - you have the same chance: in the @richardjefferiesmuseum

  8. The exhibition is great! 😄 cream tea, music and spending the weekend at the garden of Richard Jefferies Museum was my weekend.
    Here some photos and more down in comments 👇

  9. The Common Fleabane in my front yard is still flowering, so it's still compulsory for me to share a photo for #WildflowerHour. It's absolutely at its peak at the moment. #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  10. Exhibiting the 3D lighting up #mandalas outside in daylight doesn't work. I improvised a box to show how they look in the dark. I may have to make a proper one at some point, but this box will do the trick for now.
    All ready for this weekend's #exhibition in #swindon

  11. Black Sabbath vinyl artwork #comission is going out today.
    If you are in #swindon or the surrounding area, visit my exhibition at the Richard Jefferies Museum this weekend on Saturday and Sunday. I will be there with many of my vinyl wall artworks and 3D mandalas.
    The mandalas are only available at #exhibitions. They are one off and not available anywhere.

  12. Didn't find many #ClimbingPlants this week but yesterday I finally saw some flowers on the Narrow-leaved Everlasting Sweet Pea that grows in my front yard, descended from seeds liberated from the wild population at my mother's local railway station. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  13. Earlier in the summer Beaked Hawksbeard flowered self-sown in my front yard. It set seed and the stems died back. It's just re-grown from the remnants at ground level, producing another batch of flowers, much shorter than the original. Took a while to work out what it was. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  14. Meadow Vetchling, already slightly past its best at the start of the week. One of the less showy of the legumes, which aren't generally a group noted for subtlety. #WildflowerHour #Swindon #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography

  15. Important news from yesterday - the Common Fleabane growing from a crack in the paving of my front yard is now flowering. So it is now mandatory for me to post fleabane pics whenever I see one. I don't make the rules here... #WildflowerHour #MandatoryFleabane #Swindon #Wiltshire #Bloomscrolling #botany #plants #flowers #wildflowers #photography
