William Roscoe, ‘the greatest of Liverpool’s citizens’ died on this day 30th June 1831 (192 years ago). A group of us did some gardening, litterpicking and putting down roses on his monument in Roscoe Gardens.
To mark the anniversary of William Roscoe's death @friendsofroscoe and I,did a clean up of the space and planted a few things, including: Rosemary for remembrance, Sage to rid of negativity, Mint for good fortune. #friendsoroscoegardens #APortraitofWilliamRoscoe #RoscoeBirch

Top evening at The Athanaeum with @LivTropicals @sinogrande @TheBotanics talking abt the Roscoe Collection & the rollercoaster ride of how the plants have survived through world wars, political wars & budget wars. May we see more hope for the future of the plant collection💚
The putrid scent emitted from the inflorescence of Sauromatum venosum permeates the greenhouse @LivTropicals today. The odour was enjoyed 😆 by our esteemed guests @IanByrneMP Raoul Curtis-Machin @TheBotanics & @sinogrande
Juanulloa aurantiaca native to Central America has flowers unusual in shape and colour, flowering today @LivTropicals #Solanaceae
Coming in August 2023... shakespearenorthplayhouse.co.uk/event/artsgrou…
@MHowie81 @B4Biodiversity @JohnnieMaguire We think it may be a bit of a specialist job but we can put this to the team and LSSL to see if we can have a go - we are just aware it’s a listed monument. Fancy joining us on our next clean up? 🧹🚮🧽💚
What a great Good Friday in Roscoe Gardens today. Blue skies, white blossom, daffodils and roses brighten up the grey environment 🤍💛💖💚 Perfect day for a litterpick, graffiti clean up and a saunter down to @RoscoeHead for a sunshine pint🍺
Thank you to all @friendsofroscoe this afternoon for a productive meeting in the sunshine...Small steps, daffodil bulbs blooming, litter picked and sign cleaning @B4Biodiversity @sean051
A day of sunshine and the greenhouses come to life @LivTropicals Strelizia reginae(Bird of Paradise) looks like he's laughing.
@LBimo1 @Scousergerry @LivTropicals 👍 all these ideas are what the gardeners have proposed before and have been knocked back numerous times. Bullet points of the meeting will be posted by Stephen Guy v soon which we will share, too.
🧵An update on the Roscoe Collection… Approx 30 people attended a meeting yesterday chaired by Stephen Guy from The West Derby Society joined by Ian Byrne, MP for West Derby…
@Scousergerry Keep an eye on when future meetings will be - we’ll be sure to post when they are and then we take it from there.
@MetroMayorSteve and @LivTropicals award winning RHS Chelsea Flower Show Exhibit.
Please watch this space to find out when the next meeting will be and how you can get involved in the right steps being taken by the right people for the Roscoe Collection to be rightly saved 💚✊
We have heard that a group of people involved in the Athenaeum are/have recently written a heritage bid to develop and save the Peach House but we are unsure if this includes the full collection…
