@allotmentcompanion.bsky.social🍂🐞 THE BEAUTY OF AN UNTIDY OCTOBER ALLOTMENT! 🌿
Don't rush to tidy up! Fallen leaves, hollow stems and seed heads provide vital winter shelter for ladybirds, bees, hedgehogs and other wildlife. 🦔🐝
Sometimes doing less helps nature more! 💚
@ukwildlife.bsky.social🦔 A tiny hole can make a HUGE difference!
Help hedgehogs roam 🌿
13cm × 13cm = a hedgehog highway!

@sarahcoles.bsky.social🌿 Artificial grass? I'd rather have daisies! 🌼
Give me a real lawn with clover, visiting blackbirds and the odd dandelion any day. A little imperfect, perhaps, but full of life!
Plastic lawns simply can't compete. 💚
@sarahcoles.bsky.social🌿 I do love a good native hedge! Blossom for the bees, berries for the birds and a little privacy for us. What's not to love?
With bare-root planting season approaching, it's a lovely time to get started.

@cathhodsman.bsky.social2. However, some small souls, like Large Yellow Underwing moth caterpillars need grass to stay long, because it's their main source of food. So, we always leave parts of our no-mows, long, because being *messy*, is *neat 🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🐛🪲#wildlifegardening
@sarahcoles.bsky.socialAnd perhaps that's the real joy of gardening. We're not just growing plants, we're making room for life.

@sarahcoles.bsky.social🌿 Thinking about adding a hedge to your garden?
From creating privacy and shelter to giving wildlife a helping hand, a good hedge can do so much more than simply mark a boundary.
Have a read 🌱

@philipmrussell.bsky.socialYour autumn garden doesn't have to be spotless.
What looks untidy to us may be winter accommodation for wildlife.
@froglife.bsky.socialOur #CoalfacetoWildspace Ayrshire, South Lanarkshire & The Lothians project had a groundbreaking 'first dig' day recently.
They ran an informative #wildlifegardening workshop before getting stuck in on starting to dig the pond at Mayfield & Easthouses Development Trust
@hdclump.comThe deer aren't the enemy in Garden Rescue Episode 18. They're part of the brief. The challenge is designing a usable wildlife garden that can survive its regular four-legged visitors. No spoilers.
@mywildlifegarden.bsky.socialSparrows bathing in the pond and a lone juvenile Goldfinch the other day. I never tire of watching these birds.

@sarahcoles.bsky.socialI went out to tidy the “neglected” garden and discovered hundreds of gentle ivy bees living there. Apparently, it wasn’t untidy—it was busy 🐝

@sarahcoles.bsky.socialDo you grow goldenrod? There's more to goldenrod than its late-season colour.
