Lupin Leaf, Ramsons and Bluebells

We went shopping today – for plants! I found a purple Vinca for the Suffragette garden and we bought a small and very charming tree.  I’ll show you when they are planted.  Raindrops had collected in the Lupin leaves at the garden centre.

Lovers’ Lane is awash with wild garlic both the Three Cornered Leek, Alium Triquetrum and Ramsons, Allium Ursinum.

The Bluebells are coming into flower too, like many other flowers, rather early in the season.

Weekly Photo Challenge – Escape – into our Flower-filled Cornish Lanes

Our Cornish hedges are filled with colour at the moment, pinks, whites and blues abound with golds and soft yellows and the lime greens of new leaf growth.  As we drive by, these all become beautiful blurs of mixed hues so I walked around the block, as it were, to capture the colours for you. I wish I could also bring you the quietness, the birdsong, the smells and the peace that came with taking all these photos for you.  Click on any photo for more detail.
