Have you had a go at our #thewinter10 challenge? It’s a weekly feature of #wildflowerhour during the winter that pushes us to try to find ten plants in bloom. More on how to join in here.
The tweets we’ve had so far have shown quite how bright and floral the darker months can still be. And now, each week, we’ll be listing the #wildflowerhour members who’ve made it to 10 once again. Congratulations to everyone who has joined in so far.
Here are this week’s champions:
