Ruithéal Rí Herb Robert drypoint etching

Herb Robert is such a hardy little plant, present throughout the whole year, peeping up out from our native hedgerows providing a constant food source for the birds and pollinators when other food sources are fading. I love Herb Robert for many different reasons, its lacy , mini fern like appearance that can withstand any weather, for its medicinal properties and how its tiny vibrant flowers provide a food source throughout the year.
