Although Wintersweet was introduced from China so long ago as 1766, it is not often seen now except in the older #gardens; and in honesty I should warn purchasers of young plants that it will not begin to flower until it is five or six years old. But it is worth waiting for.

What IS this @BBCOne. In my line of work I teach/perform recorder to literally thousands of people, who react positively and with enthusiasm. It occurs to me that the ONLY time I see the recorder being disparaged like this is by journalists who don't know what else to say 🙃

It's #NationalHedgehogDay!
The name hedgehog comes from the Middle English 'heyghoge', for their love of hedgerows. Another early name was 'furzepig', from the Old English for gorse, because of all those prickles.

Today is #Candlemas, halfway between winter solstice & spring equinox. Medieval #folklore says today’s weather predicts when winter will end:
‘If #CandlemasDay be fair & bright, winter will have another fight. If Candlemas Day brings cloud & rain, winter won't come again’.

Today is Childermas Day, the feast of the Holy Innocents, on the fourth day of Christmas. It's an appropriate day for the Coventry Carol and other medieval lullaby-laments, which give voice to the grief that lies near the heart of the Christmas season: aclerkofoxford.blogspot.com/…

You’ve seen illuminated manuscripts. But what about… illuminated biscuits? 🤔 #MedievalTwitter

ALT A set of nine biscuits (cookies) decorated to look like illustrations featuring in medieval illuminated manuscripts. Designs include: a group of animals looking up at the stars; Reynard the fox addressing some chickens; a dog; a knight fighting a snail; a peacock surrounded by golden vines; a festive hedgehog; an illuminated letter with a stern religious figure in the centre; a bat with its wings outstretched, surrounded by a golden border; a sacred salmon surrounded by golden vines and stars.
