Garden and Woodland Pics for Celia

There are so many little things I want to show you in the garden- here are a few for now.

Celia asked for pictures but I hope anyone else dropping by will  have a quick look!

Snakeshead Fritillary  – my favourite native spring bulb! (fritillaria meleagris) Extraordinary and unique as far as I know

Fritillaria meleagris

Apple blossom any day now – three different sorts on the family tree

From Maureen's garden!

Primroses from my neighbour’s garden. We trade plants and bread!

The Buddha sitting next to the brunnera ‘jack frost’ contemplating irises in leaf

AND down in the woods….

allium ursinum

Swathes of wild garlic (allium ursinum) for Celia!  No bulbs but you can pick the leaves and the white flower heads when they appear in a couple of weeks time.

Celandine and Wood Anenomes (don’t ask me which sort!)  are everywhere right now too!

Oh to be in England now that Spring is there! Or in an Australian garden too, where there will be chocolate cake I am sure :)
