Daughter is babysitting tonight and she has sent me some photos of the #wildflowers in the #RoadVerges that she passed on the way there 😀
Either side of Uckham Lane. Which do you (and the bugs, bees and birds) prefer? #wildflowers #stopmowing #RoadVerges
Chelson Meadow Recycling Centre really living up to its name 😃
There were wildflowers galore in a small 20m2 patch- including these fab Pyramidal orchids. When managed correctly, #RoadVerges can be a haven for wildlife.
Nice work Plymouth City Council 👍

As the #RoadVerges have not been cut, wildflowers popping up all over. Is this a patch of Cuckoo flower ?

Great to welcome BBC Radio Cumbria to #Bowberhead Farm today with Chief execs... #IanDunn of Plantlife & #DavidSharrod of YDMT & me of CumbriaWildlifeTrust for an Excellent day talking #NorthernHayMeadows & #RoadVerges #Meadowmakers #GreenRecoveryChallengeFund
The old adage goes 'If you don't use it, you lose it', this is true for hundreds of UK #wildflowers that have fallen by the wayside (or roadside😁) #RoadVerges
Here are just four such species of native Wildflower that were once held in high regard. There are hundreds more.
Doing my homework before talking to our Parish Council next week about how to look after the beautiful grass verges in our villages. They are v supportive already which is great! Plantlife The British Nature Guide High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty #RoadVerges #Ashburnham #Penhurst
Nottingham City Council are helping bees, butterflies, wildflowers by friendly mowing #roadverges & public spaces. This is Middleton Boulevard central reservation looking exceptional. 🌷

One upside of the lockdown is that local authorities aren’t mowing the life out of our #roadverges at the moment. This one near me Flintshire Council has lots of lovely mauve Cuckooflower thriving on it.

Interesting read and stats in Plantlife campaign. With depletion of #wildflowers habitat, and fragmentation of #wildlife corridors, a shift in #RoadVerges landscape management approach and perception could make a massive impact on #biodiversity
