    Just feeding the parrots in one of my gardens. The Just feeding the parrots in one of my gardens. There are a lot less this year - sadly I think the cold winter got to them.

    Ground elder, Spanish bluebells and wild garlic - Ground elder, Spanish bluebells and wild garlic - so invasive and yet so pretty! And buzzing with life.  Here’s the dilemma I had with a client today - remove invasive plants because we (or our clients) have been told they are ‘bad’ or leave them to do their bit for wildlife? 😁 🌳 I chose to keep them. 😉 #savetheplanet #climateaction #greenfingered #londongardener #londongardendesigner #thecuriousgardener
