Plant of the Day
Thursday 23 October 2025
The fragrant white flowers of Clerodendrum trichotomum (harlequin glorybower, glorytree, peanut butter tree) are followed by berries that turn bright blue, and then black, which contrast with the red calyx. This large deciduous shrub or small tree has a distinct scent to the foliage and it tends to produce new stems from the roots becoming a thicket.

The leaves smell like peanuts if you smush them! Also, just look at those flowers. Awesome.

The Small Things Spreading Joy in November
Another month over and I would very much time to slow down for minute! I spent the first half of November in Northumberland, location hunting for the house move which, by hook or by crook, will be happening next year. The second half was mostly spent in the back of cupboards wondering when the Doctor had retrofitted all the storage spaces in my parents house to be a set of back up Tardises (tardises? tardisi? really feel there shouldn’t be a plural). How can each space hold so much stuff?
I’ve been doing my best to get a walk each day and I’m grateful that the weather has been very kind in terms of both the amount of sunshine provided in the few hours of daylight we’ve been getting and the temperature. I’ve already had to resort to thermals even though it’s been incredibly mild for the time of year and I dread to think how I’m going to manage when we get a proper cold snap but since I’m trying not to borrow trouble I shall assume future me will deal with whatever happens and get on with sharing the pictures, which is what this post is all about:
