Well priced... and out of stock....

Does anyone know of a supplier of such leaves AND grass tufts where it is actually possible to order both at once, please?

We have a lot of birches in the garden, but high grass, and a creek with some large-leafed plants (burdocks, according to google translate) makes it a bit difficult to search the ground for spelt....

Or would  anyone living not too far from me be able/willing to share an order of either, when they are available...?
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!

I'll send you a small bag of unsifted stuff to, Argo, if you PM me your address.

might be an option to search for places, where the things have been driven by the wind, not just direktly under the tree ... but anyway ... it is nearly summer (or is it already?) so it is tricky to finde these, cause the will come in masses in spring.

Next spring, when knowing what to look for and having a NEED to do so ... You will see yourself wading in these knee-deep  lol

Go to a craft store. Look at the hole punches. Find one that has a leaf pattern. Then go look at paper, the thiner the better. find some in yellows, browns, reds & orange. If you are lucky you will find some verigated in these colors. Then just punch away. All the leaves you will ever need fairly cheap.

I should have a little talk with the neighbour's monster birch. Hammers, when is a good time to harvest? Is it too late?

Probably. April-May is the time as I recall.

Allright... I'm sure I won't finish my LPL5 round 10 entry until next year anyways. Some of those seed pods would look right at place around Amon Hen.
