Bluebells


Bluebells

These so remind me of being a kid going bluebelling for our mums.

As a lady of a certain age, I'm sure when you went Bluebelling they where true English ones not these rampent Spanish ones.

100% Siris. These and white variety were here when I came in 1993, even an occasional pink. It doesn't matter what you throw at them they come back.

I try to dig out the Spanish ones annually, but just end up breaking the stems off the bulbs, which seem so deeply rooted. I've a few pink ones, equally a nuisance.

Love them mum and dad use to take 7 of us to pick the blue bells too in the woods.😊

I too have a small colony of Spanish bluebells but I am slowly getting to grips with them. Along with the Ramsons!
