Thought i would share this with everyone else having discovered it in my garden last week.i think this would make exellent scale nettles for a diorama in 1/35,could also be used as foliage for shrubs or even trees.This is in its dried state and would need a spray of hairspray once placed on the dio and also a blast with an airbrush to change the colour if needed.
This is oak tree blossom from an English oak tree and when it falls from the tree is does so in these small clumps.I havent seen it on the tree before so not sure if it happens every year so to be on the safe side i have collected it by the bag load.

Let me know what you all think.
