Serenading Linden Lime
Most of my work goes to newsletter subscribers only. When you know some plants, Domei comes next.
A simple, quiet practice built around giving one plant your full attention without an app or a cushion or the need for a belief system. Some call it 'zen in work boots'.

Oh, my beloved linden lime
I look forward to your blossoms
And your delightful scent
Every June without fail
You gift us fragrance and medicine
I drink your foraged flower tea all year round
A lovely reminder of a very special tree. Thank you! ??
That’s lovely
I was in Lisbon at the end of May – the Lindens were in full bloom and scenting the air. As I arrived from the airport on the Metro at Indente station, ascending the stairs the scent met me halfway. What a wonderful greeting, there was no mistaking the soothing fragrance of this blossom’s blessing
Aah! And that’s a big exhale for me, of tension I didn’t even know I was holding. And a big imaginary inhale of that warm honeyed sweetness in my memory banks. Thank you Robin for another piece of goodness. Wishing you well!
Thank you for such a beautiful and tranquil serenade
Yes a beautiful tree most people pass by.
I used to choose my walking routes around Exeter based on the trees. There are some spectacular Limes I miss living in the north! Thank you for the visual, my olfactory memory will complete the picture…
