  1. UK - Key plants for a #ClimateChange garden

    BBC Gardeners' World Magazine

    Published: Thursday, 24 November 2022 at 11:30 am

    Take a look at our pick of key plants to grow in a changing climate.

    "With temperatures and levels of pollution on the rise, plants can help gardens and gardeners thrive in changing times.

    "This might seem like a daunting prospect, but the good news for gardeners is that there are steps we can take at a local level to help ease the effects of these big issues.

    "While we can use drought-tolerant plants to cope in raised temperatures, the long-term solution lies in reducing the heat. Some plants have been proven to actively improve the #microclimate of a garden and surrounding buildings. For example, plants like #jasmine, #EnglishIvy and #viburnum are able to cool a building by between 7-14ºC. Plants can also trap pollution by absorbing particulate matter. #Conifers have been found to be especially good at this due to their smaller leaf size and shape.

    "On top of this, the more ecologically resilient we can make our gardens with increased planting, the better they will serve us as places to relax, reduce stress and improve our mental well-being."

  9. A tiny bee on snowball viburnum. I think it's some kind of mining bee, but if you've got a better guess, let me know. They are swarming all over the viburnum flowers--the first mass of bees I have seen this spring. #birds #birding ##insects #bees #photography #nature #viburnum #bloomscrolling #naturephotography #HoosierMast
