This is a remarkable piece.
3 scientists who study forest fungal networks look at how the idea of the wood-wide-web caught on, fueled by unchecked claims, credulous reporting, and confirmation bias - including their own. @undarkmag

Fascinating. Anyone who wonders why grafted plants cost more, this is why. Stronger, bigger, heavier cropping & resistant to soil-borne diseases.
To produce the best starting material, we make our tomato plants as strong as possible.💪 We do this by combining a strong rootstock with a upper graft and this machine makes that a lot easier.👌 Check it out!📹

This Coreopsis is different to many, it’s not a seed raised variety but bred to be almost sterile which means it keeps on producing flowers from June onwards. Yes it may have some spent heads but it will keep on giving. Coreopsis Walberton’s Flying Saucers is #ukbred #ukgrown

I can’t think of a reason to #plant another #catmint variety!
Can you @grahampfe and @hardyplants ?
It’s so appropriately named ‘Summer Magic’ (Nepeta grandiflora)
