Comma #butterfly feeding on #Fruits @savebutterflies.bsky.social @wildflowerhour.bsky.social @rspbotmoor.bsky.social It all joins up and works together adding up to more than the sum of its parts.....
Rose hips from a hedgerow around the field we were playing softball on yesterday. I think its a Dog Rose but I'm open to correction as these things aren't easy! #WildflowerHour #Fruits
A few Lords and Ladies still hanging on #WildFlowerHour #Fruits
A small cluster of the developing #Fruits of Snowberry, Symphoricarpus albus with one tiny pink flower remaining; this naturalised shrub is widespread in our local hedgerows

So many #fruits out there for #WildflowerHour . All these from the hedgerows around the outskirts of my Dorset village. Mostly natives with a few escapees. See ALT text for details. @wildflowerhour.bsky.social
The sloes are definitely early this year - I have already harvested enough for a couple of litres of gin… #WildFlowerHour #Fruits
European Beech, Fagus sylvatica, where the #Fruits (nuts) are protected by spiky hard brown cases

Tutsan berries looking rather scrumptious, although they're NOT edible

Lots of blackberries this year, although they're not very big 🌱

Long live the hedgerow! 🍃
Plus a bonus fungi which we are sneaking in under the guise of it being a 'fruiting body'. No further questions.
Bit hard to spot the emerging edible #fruits of the common mallow (Malva sylvestris) which some people call "cheeses" owing to the flat round, cheese wheel shape.
