I thought twice about this thread as tree men are big tough guys and don't do flowers:lol: All part of the habitat of the woods though:001_smile:

David, as we get older we get more interested in these things until eventually we end up sat in a deck chair on our allotments.

 

I would love to expand my knowledge of woodland flowers, but taking in fungi has frazzled what little brain cells I had

[David oakman]

I was going to put tough guys like dean:biggrin: but as you text me at christmas i thought i must not be mean:lol:

 

You are right Dean as we get older we look at all things differently and in the woods we see a bigger picture and how it all works together.

haha

 

I promise I'll have a look through my wood tomorrow and take some pictures of what I find.

 

It could be bramble mind for all I know

when learning these in college, i could never get my head round learning the flowers, when there were the trees selected for the flowers identification tests and we were being tested on flowers i could never get a good mark. but when the same trees come up in other tests and we are being tested on other means i could get them most of the time. same for the ancient woodland indicators and the soil indicator plants i could never get for some reason. but i am willing to learn anywho!

My woodlands on clay soil so there should be indicator plants/weeds for that, you can test yourself Rob
