You probably dont care but does someone know a method to log back into an instagram account?
I was stupid lost my account password. I love any tips you can offer me
@Gustavo Jaxton instablaster :)
@Marcos Archie Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Marcos Archie it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Gustavo Jaxton no problem =)
Been trying to teach myself to identify different trees, really appreciate the level of detail in the videos.
Never knew about the glands at the base of the cherry leaf. The old name is 'gean' and it is (in context) an indicator of ancient woodlands. Although the 'trees' you see may not be very old (although it often gets older than 50 years) you may notice that in many woodlands or hedgerows, it often occurs in groups. This is because it suckers from the roots - in fact it is one of the few native hardwoods that does not coppice when cut. It actually clones naturally and these clones can cover large areas in an ancient woodland and can be truly ancient. I can supply a link to a youtube vid that shows this if you wish.
Just what I needed for identifying trees when out walking my dog. Very detailed and informative, thank you very much for your time and effort !
Thanks 😁
Mate, you're a flippin' legend for this series
Thanks 😁
I knew all of this before except for your trick to determine wild cherry from bird cherry. Thank you! Very good video
Thanks 😊
Thank you😊 Leant so much from that. Absolutely love walking through woodlands so will be looking out for these beauties.
You have a fantastic depth of knowledge. Thank you for sharing it.
Thanks 😊
Thats so cool.. thanks so much for this video! Now i know my beautiful tree is a Wild Cherry Tree 🍒 I swear when the leaves are falling in the spring it's like its snowing in the sun. Im only 27 but i don't think most people my age appreciate the beauty and peaceful it is to see them fall. Thanks again 🙏
That’s great yes they are a really nice tree 😁
I do 😂
@@ryanalexander3088 🥰
Awesome video, thank you so much. I’m a photographer and I spend a lot of time in the UK woodland. This channel is just what I need to learn about what I am photographing. Have subscribed and I look forward to more 👍🏻
Great stuff thanks 😁
Love these videos. Really informative, interesting and just the right pace. Thanks so much!
Best explanation on identifying trees I’ve seen.
So informative, thank you.
Thanks Pete 😁
Thank you very much, guys ✊🇺🇦🇬🇧
Your videos are so great, thank you! With a bit of time, I’m sure you’ll get the success you deserve
Thanks. Hope so 😁
What a fantastic way of learning about trees!!! Thank you very much for your great job!!
Thanks 😊
I collect wood to burn . Today I got a good amount of elderberry tree logs when I went on a walk ,they're as thick as my bicep ,they have a hollow center. They burn Great in the burner tho
Great little video on types of trees. Learnt a lot
Thanks 😊

Excellent video. Now time to get out there and put the video to good use!
Thanks 😊
Fantastic video
Cheers 😁
Excellent video really informative 👍
Cheers 😊
Thank you.

The first tree you featured is Prunus Avium, common name is Wild Cherry but Prunus Padus is known as the Bird Cherry, this is odd. Padus translates to "thread", Avium translates to "of the birds", so why isn't the Wild Cherry's ltin name Prunus Padus and the Bird Cherry Prunus Avium? A classifier of plants having a laugh? Someone did something similar with Holly, the females being known as Silver King, Golden Queen etc.
Really good part 2. In my folder again. Always enjoy the resin. And only today I was trying to make a Mat Whistle out of the Sycamore. My knife wasn't that good. All the best. Mark
Thanks Mark 😊
@@UKWILDCRAFTS A pleasure.
Thanks, good stuff man , keep it up
Cheers 😊
Ace video thank you
Cheers 😊
Very interesting video. Like 21. Greetings
Thanks 😊
Very good mate. Those seeds do taste like cucumber. Cheers
Cheers. Yeah they're great
Elderflower can smell different from plant to plant. There are some which have the sweet elderflower aroma and others which do smell less pleasant, a bit musty for sure. We learned which ones to avoid locally and only pick the ones which appeal to our nose so that the wine or cordial has a better chance of tasting good.
merci
I love your channel, I have learned so much better than from a book or a picture.
I mistakenly thought the sycamore is English maple.
it's basically a maple. It's in the same genus as all the maples, but it just has a different common name for some reason
@@yourmum69_420 thanks for your information, it helps.
12:12 Didn't you mean to say "opposite" leaf arrangement rather than "alternate"?
Ah yes I did! Thanks
just subscribed. Really interesting. I'm intrd in taking a horticultural course. Whats the best way to learn about Uk based trees? I'm not bad with plants and the odd tree but would like to know more about edible/healing trees. Thanks
You're the best
Ah thanks 😊
There very commen in Scotland uk where i live😮
Hi, are the leaves of wild cherries poisonous? i got a lot of leaves that i soaked in oil and extracted the smell out of it. there is a pungent smell kindda like vinegar and i am very concerned that it might be poisonous. i wanna used in perfumes. i also used heat to make sure the water of the leaves evaporated and essential oils dissolved in the oil
This is very good, thanks. Sycamore leaves - alternate..? They are opposite in the video.
Thanks and yes sorry I misspoke on that one 😊
can you make a video what kinda of tree's are flamebel
I bought some bonsai seeds from the shop 'Mankind' and they turned into Wych Elm, huge leaves and grow like weeds, definitely not bonsai material.
👏
Hi, I didn't catch your name on any of your great videos, please don't be shy, you are a solid guy who has taught a 50+ guy a lot. This should be mandatory in school.
BTW can you dehydrate any of your bounty for future use?
Hi Craig my names Lewis. Yes for sure I dehydrate a lot of what I forage. Especially fruits like cherries and berries, and mushrooms too
I hope you eventually bring out a book "the wildcraftopedia" (don't forget I suggested the name chuckle chuckle).
But on a serious note if you ever do, look at your videos for reference how you provide a visual reference for trees and plants. Too many books give artist representations of trees and plants and most the time the are poor ( I don't know why the authors give great descriptions but I'm only guessing have there friends give poor illustrations, I'm guessing they didn't know what a camera was.)
If you ever do it will be up there with top quality encyclopedia prices and a big book that's my a
Tip.
Hah that's a good name I might steal that 😆
This is great (my tree knowledge isn’t the best) 😅 Thanks very much 👍
Thanks 😊
Did you mean to say "alternate", at the end about the sycamore? I'm new to plant identification, I thought alternate was when they were not in opposite pairs.
Yes I did well spotted. Thanks :)
Subbing.
😁
I found a pine tree that has cones but has 3 needles a time is that a different type of pine??
Yes
So technically we can eat "trees" something they never mention at school.
Can sycamore be tapped for sap?
Yep sycamore can be tapped 👍
@@UKWILDCRAFTS sweet, thanks
Can I eat sicamore seeds?
Only if you want the shits. They contain hypoglycin A
about pine leaves, you said "don't mistake them with 'you' because they are poisonous" or did I misheard you ?
Ah I said ‘don’t mistake them with yew’. As in the yew tree (Taxus baccata). It’s a very poisonous tree which some people mistake for pine
UK Wildcrafts: ahh yew tree, thanks for the clarification
@@UKWILDCRAFTS I've heard this warning a lot, but personally I don't get how anyone can mistake pine for yew. They look SO different
Elder leaves are edible?
Nope they are toxic. Only the flowers and berries of elder are edible, and the berries should be cooked
@@UKWILDCRAFTS
I put a few elder berries in my fruit leather 👍
I love your videos but I wish you'd give the heights in feet as I'm British and don't understand metres they mean nothing to me.
Learn some maths and the ratios or use a calculator on Google my man
you really don't know how big a meter is? how old are you if you don't mind me asking?
