Happy #TreeCharterDay! The first day of #NationalTreeWeek, the start of bare root planting season, a day to celebrate all the vital things trees do for us, & revisit the principles of the #TreeCharter that show what we must do to keep them in our lives treecharter.uk

Thank you to everyone for the tremendous response to my winter buds illustration tweet. Here is an image I took of the original #oak bud I used for one of the paintings. The painting was x40 life-size ! @WoodlandTrust @TrackATree @TheTreeCouncil #NationalTreeWeek

As it is #NationalTreeWeek I thought it was time to bring out the bud #illustrations from last year's #RHS exhibit. Loved painting these and the originals were larger than life. Pen & ink twigs to follow tomorrow. @WoodlandTrust @BSBIbotany @HampshireLife @HantsIWWildlife
