Arlington Bluebell Walk Blog

The bluebells are nearly fully out and the wood looks wonderful.

This exceptionally hot weather is bringing the bluebells forward very quickly. In some places they are virtually fully out and the scent fantastic.

Suddenly the wood has a distinct blue haze, as this period of warm and showery weather has brought the bluebells forward quite quickly.  The white wood anemones are still present but fading fast in places, being  replaced by the bluebells.

The bluebells are emerging fast with this lovely warm and sunny weather, but the white wood anemones still predominate.

The white wood anemones are a glorious carpet of white, spreading over the whole wood. A few bluebells are now emerging, but we need some warm April showers and consistent warmer weather to get them really going, plus our sheep need an abundance of fresh grass in their fields!
