It's a pricking out extravaganza at the nursery as all the Alpine Blue-Sow-Thistle and Elm seedlings have germinated. Our wonderful volunteers, Olly and Kathryn, were busy today getting all the seedlings in their own pots 🌱 @NatureScot @ScotGovNetZero @TheBotanics

The #scottishplantrecovery team prepared the elm that we collected into soft wood cuttings, which are now hopefully rooting on our new mist bench. Thanks for the help @Splendidtrees. @scotgovnetzero #naturerestoration #naturerestorationfund #teamrbge @TheBotanics
