Our Great British Wild Flowers are
apparently dissapearing. The raw and organic look and feel of these
plants are being taken for granted. Admittedly I hadn't thought about
them this way before, but they add a lot of colour and a beautiful
wildness to the landscape.
As a response to this tragedy gardening
networks and the like are encouraging us Brits to grow wild flowers
in our gardens and communities to encourage biodiversity in plants
and make sure we don't lose what's right on our doorstep.
