    Beautiful, beautiful, important video for as many people to see as possible. Perhaps more people will notice the beauty all around them, or lost, and work to maintain, preserve or restore it. Meadow seeds are available for anyone who wants to reseed a ryegrass paddock or field...and native wildflowers self-seed prolifically if allowed to. Thank you, Philip.

    Highest Respect ~ Deepest Gratitude For The Ultimate Honour Of Watching ~ Appreciating ~ Learning From Your Vast Array Of Video Presentations 👏👏👏 Thank You Mr Mould ~ Thank You To Your Family ~ Thank You To Your Associates For This Honour 💫🌟💫 We bought our home within a Boreal Forest on Georgian Bay, Ontario, Canada, nine years ago. To my hearts delight 🥰 I have been regenerative gardening and creating wildflower and perennial pollinator gardens over the last nine years. It’s thrilling to watch migratory wildlife visit our gardens. It’s always a great surprise to see what wildflowers the winter deer droppings have left for us. Together 🤝 as a world community ~ we will rejuvenate and restore our ravished landscapes. Thank You 🙏 Once Again With Appreciative Gratitude 🙌 🙌 🙌

    How wonderful! We live in northeast Kansas on a preserve. We’ve spent the past twenty years restoring the prairies and woodlands with a focus on our wildflowers too. Thank you for recapturing the flowers and fields in your part of the world. It starts with one person, one seed. Well done sir!

    This would be my dream job, to help restore the countryside and wildflower meadows. I can remember the joy as a child, seeing these wonderful flowers. But in just 50 years they have all be taken, changed over to green grass to feed the cow, to produce more milk. I would love to help, even in a small way. I found my first yellow rattle recently, just one, but it was a job to see.

    Wonderful. May we restore all the lands to their native habit.

    we are lucky to live boardering on an unused field in a valley area in West Cornwall...the field is too steep for the farmer to plough, so its left fallow..every spring it is so beautiful with all kinds of flowers, the farmer manages to cut it once a year---its also has a steep sided narrow river( once used to work a mine and the field is very wet along the riverside)... the rest of the time its untouched---on a warm spring day all you hear is the buzz of insects---magic!

    My favorite wildflower is Queens Anne’s Lace. It blooms here in Minnesota in August. I find it wild along an industrial park nature walk near my home. Where they’re plentiful I always gather a few flower heads to press and make greeting cards. I wish someone would sell small seed bombs that we can throw out of car windows into open spaces to see them grow full of wildflowers. We need to increase habitat for 🐝 bees and 🦋 butterflies. 🥰 Happy Easter!

    Delightful in so many ways. The music made it hard for me to hear Philip but I still enjoyed this beautiful film so much.

    It made me very happy viewing this - So much has been lost of our native forests - fauna and flora and illuminating this tragic loss is imperative as man has become a far detached species from the glory of our natural world. Thank you Philip for stirring the senses to what once was and now should truly be. 🙏

    Thank you for a wondrous and moving video - it brought back childhood memories of lying in tall grass and watching clouds sail across the sky; when I was surrounded by clover, buttercups and lovely feathery-topped grasses. I found myself crying...it was the pure expression of the interdependence we are responsible for whether we look at it from the botanical or the humanities point of view. Best wishes to everyone from Dublin. Thank you, my dear Philip and Oliver.

    Thankyou for inspiring commentary on art culture and ecology. Decency such as yours is as rare as the flowers themselves.....and so good souls agree we do act to nurture it back....in some ways the best things to do for land are to pop a few plants in then see what happens....just watch and so many surprises happen.

    It is the same in Australia what little of native meddows left are now protected by law . Some native grasses in some ares are down to a matter of square meters and climate change is not helping .

    Thank you for your environmentalism. One of the ways that I help is to tell people about my geothermal loop and solar voltaic panels. Yes, geothermal. I had a house built in 2010 and opted to have a geothermal loop installed in my backyard to heat and cool my house. It's a closed pipe that runs underground. There's treated water inside the loop that runs through the pipe into the ground. The natural hot temperature in the earth heats the water in the pipe. The water flows to a converter in my basement via a pump. The energy from the heated water can be converted to heat or air conditioning for my house. I have a forced air furnace in my house. Heating or cooling year round at my discretion. No propane. No natural gas. And wildflowers and grass grow right over top of where the loop is buried. The deer walk on it and graze. You can't tell it's there. Also, I have solar voltaic panels on the roof of the house to offset the cost to run the geothermal pump. The solar panels are more durable against hail than my metal roof, and I accrue electric credits in the summer. My biggest utility bill is in the winter. To heat a 2500 sq. ft. house during the coldest month in Colorado is $145.00 in electric. If I had more solar panels, I could get it down to zero. My carbon footprint is nearly zero. I love, Love, LOVE my geothermal loop and solar panels. I shopped around and found the best deals. The loop, panels, and furnace were about 30K installed. In my opinion, all new construction and rebuilds should be done this way. No need for fracking. No potential for explosions or people getting hurt from gas leaks. Insurance is lower. Pass it on!

    Love the video - but why is the music so loud - sometimes it is very difficult to understand what is being said.

    I too am a lover of wild flowers. To understand them we need to see them as communities of different species living cooperatively together. This is very well explained in the book ‘The Population Biology of Plants’ by John Harper (ex Bangor prof)

    The music is too intrusive - an unnecessary distraction. Try to tone it down.
