A wild set of growths spawn from the base of a beech tree deep in Hillock Wood, Buckinghamshire.

Pink pine cones decorating a Blue Spruce tree in my backyard. Have a great day! Happy Texture Tuesday!

Transforming this mushroom-image, into this one. It was fun ;-))

most people are afraid of a new beginning as it often times means that new challenges are ahead. with an apprentice's mindset, one is able to look into themselves and find the true value that you are bringing into your new destiny. use these tests as a chance to make yourself better for the future.

Getting up one very frosty morning, I found this amazing structure about 2 inches high, growing from the birdbath. Completely round it looks like a frozen tornado, or whirlpool.

I'm enjoying seeing the new growth in my wife's garden, including the grape hyacinths springing up through the ivy.

Thanks to everyone for your kind comments, awards and faves! I always tell myself that I will go through and thank each individual on each image but I never seem to have enough time. So please know that all of you are very much appreciated!!!

This old silo near tiny Paynes Point IL. has become a planter pot for a young tree. Not the first time I have seen this, but no less cool....

Potting utensils left behind next to the kitchen garden in the "Haus der Offiziere", an old military training quarter in Wünsdorf from 1910. After the war it served the Russian military in East Germany until 1994.

A strange fungal growth on an old tree stump. No idea what it is so any ID would be welcome.

Suppressed by mistake. Apologies to all of you who had favoured it and commented.

Spring growth on several cuttings from an elderberry bush

Noticed this unusual growth while out for a drive.

I like to imagine other-worldly scenes. This is what it might look like if Martians grew poppies

Growth tips have been quickly getting larger and more deep green. When still new they were good to eat, but now they're getting to be too tough to chew.

Ich mag es , Blumen beim Wachstum zu beobachten.Jetzt im Winter haben die meisten Pflanzen eine Wachstumspause, aber der Ritterstern( Amaryllis) hatte die Pause im September/Oktober. Die ersten Spitzen habe ich vor 2 Wochen fotografiert

I like to watch flowers grow; now in winter most plants have a growth break, but the Amaryllis(Hippeastrum) had their break in September / October. I photographed the first tips 2 weeks ago

Went out quickly when the sun showed itself briefly just after the Alert Test this afternoon - I was looking for something yellow , but found something pale green . I am not sure what type of tree is coming out here but it still caught my eye !!

This image showcases an acorn surrounded by twisted, intricate roots, creating a mystical and organic scene. The lighting casts dramatic shadows, emphasizing the detailed texture and the connection between the seed and its environment, symbolizing growth and the mysteries of nature.

Fiddleheads or fiddlehead greens are the furled fronds of a young fern, harvested for use as a vegetable. Left on the plant, each fiddlehead would unroll into a new frond (circinate vernation). As fiddleheads are harvested early in the season before the frond has opened and reached its full height, they are cut fairly close to the ground. Fiddleheads contain a compound associated with bracken toxicity. The fiddlehead resembles the curled ornamentation (called a scroll) on the end of a stringed instrument, such as a fiddle. It is also called a crozier, after the curved staff used by bishops, which has its origins in the shepherd's crook.
