    They look like Spanish bluebells. Native bluebells have a more slender leaf than the ones in the photograph.

    My natives are finally out (and spreading well i’m pleased to say), just as the Spanish ones are going over. They have narrower leaves (so much so that i’d found it difficult to spot them coming up in the grass until they flowered), flowers all on one side of the stem, and are a much more intense blue.

    Hopefully they’ll keep on spreading.

    They've been out in the woods for about 7-10 days, and in the last couple of days I started spotting them in the garden

    Why am I in this handcart and where are we going ?
