I know nothing about flowers but I used to go there a lot in the late 90s as I was working in Roehampton at the time I used to enjoy seeing the deer in Richmond park |

I often think that Britain with its extraordinary range of introduced plants is one of the most botanically colourful places on the planet. Without these species our gardens would be dull affairs.

RogerP West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire No county (Lincolnshire) has better churches and worse houses. The poorer sort of people wash their clothes with hog's dung, and burn dried cow's dung for want of better fuel; whence comes the Lincolnshire proverb: "Where the hogs shite soap and the cows shite fire".
