Bluebells


Late April, early May is the best part of the year in the North of England as this is the time the bluebells come out. A bluebell or Hyacinthoides non-scripta is particularly associated with ancient woodland where it may dominate the understorey to produce carpets of violet–blue flowers in "bluebell woods". We went for a walk the other day hoping to get a glimpse of this wonderful plant and here's some nice photos!

I hope you enjoy them until next year!
