Great specimens of Daucus Carota (Wild Carrot) aka Bishops Lace on #BullIsland . At the right time, the whole plant is edible. The central floret is the only part to produce #nectar . #pillinatorfriendly #Dublin #IrishGardening #Wildflower #CoastalSeries #Bee

Bindweed flower. A nice contrast to the solid green of the sand dunes foliage. #BullIsland #flowers #White #weed #bindweed #CoastalSeries #Dublin #Ireland #irishgardening

Any ID for this #mushroom? The only pic I took. Mower or Brittlestem, or something else? Location is very coastal, sandy soil, large grassy area.

Happy Summer!๐ŸŒž The Pyramidal Orchid. An orchid, and easily found in various soil types, but especially sand dunes. Becoming quite popular for urban gardeners transplanting them into their borders! No harm I suppose. #CoastalSeries #Orchid #Dublin #Ireland #BullIsland #Pink

This is a hopeful story of how nature can persist and recover, even in the most highly managed habitats. Read more on this rare orchid that popped up in Front Square, and the intricate biology happening underground that makes it possible. tcd.ie/news_events/toโ€ฆ

With Halloween fast approaching, PLEASE don't put up these artificial cobwebs in your gardens, often covering whole hedges! They're lethal for our beloved garden birds and other wildlife, trapping and entangling them! Thanks! ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ˜ข Supervalu TidyTowns Competition IrishGardening Little Green Space ๐Ÿฆ‹

Dahlia Tenuicaulis, or ever blooming tree flower. As seen at the always stunning Irish National Stud. Unusually warm October resulting in second showings on lots of plants, but this one can and often does flower all year. Height? They can reach over 10ft. #Dahlia #pink #flower #Dublin
