Summer is fading, but the meadows and grasslands of Britain and Ireland are still looking pretty magnificent. We know this because #wildflowerhour members showed us that last night. Thank you so much to everyone who took part in our grasslands challenge. What a wonderful display of blooms.
Some highlights:
