This year we have one clump of pink bluebells when we have never had any
before, anywhere. Does anyone know how this happens?


It could be some sort of genetic mutation. Sometimes a plant with pink
flowers can produce a couple of white ones.

I suppose it must be something like that, or something has blown in from
elsewhere. It's a bit like some of the wild primroses we see here and
there. Some are a true pink or even deeper while all around are the usual
yellow.
