Default Bluebells (blue)

Such a pretty colour and the scent is wonderful :-)


Look like the more robust Spanish bluebells to me Hyacinthoides hispanica or
a hybrid of, rather than English bluebells H. non-scripta which have all the
flowers on the same side of the stem and are usually more deeper blue.

Hehe, I *knew* someone would comment on that.
We have a mix of both, but the Spanish ones are more vigorous and pop up
everywhere.
I don't discriminate, they both smell wonderful.
I am encouraging the white ones, but removing the blue (Spanish) seedheads.

Hello West of London, this greeting comes from deepest Sussex :-)
