Ngahhhh it's a sweet pea by Lilian Snelling. Sorry heat has melted my brain! But standing by the message
We want everyone to be safe, confident and comfortable when they visit or work in our @RHSLibraries - so we will be politely asking everyone to wear a mask when they visit. Here's a sweet pea by Ehret to say thank you for being considerate and kind 💚
📢Job Klaxon Digital Engagement Officer. Fantastic opportunity to be part of a great team to share and promote digitised collections like these covering 500 years of gardening. Only downside you have to work with me!😄

Good news is I plan to go in on Monday to check on collections. Expect lots of over-excited tweets of this kind of thing
If the dahlias on #GardenersWorld tickled your fancy I can recommend our latest online exhibition The Flower of a Thousand Faces

Just finished recording another @The_RHS podcast. One for my fellow Pteridomaniacs - lots of lovely ferns! Illustration from Lindley Library - entitled Polypodium cristatum, , from James Bolton: Filices Britannicae. Leeds/Halifax: 1785-1790.

I will be speaking about The Hidden Horticulturists @hexhambookfest on Sunday. Looking forward to telling the story of these amazing gardeners and the plants they discovered and grew. Like this giant water lily that nearly cost one of them his life
