Bluebells - Around 70% of Common Bluebells are found in the
British Isles and there is probably no where better to see them. The
flowers are stunning shades of blue with drooping 'trumpet' like
flowers, and heavily scented. They are a protected species and should
not be picked. One of our favourite places to see them is at
Westonbirt Arboretum, Gloucestershire, in Silk Wood there are massive
drifts along trails and paths. We list gardens and woods on our guide where you can see them and a few other places not on our guide which are worth visiting. From around 13 April depending on location. If you know somewhere really special let us know and we will add it to the list. |
