Woods and Alpines

You could have titled this Little and large! I hope your phlox does well for you - it does look nice in its little nest!
Is there anything better than a bluebell wood? I saw a garlic wood yesterday without any bluebells and it just didn't look right!

Thank you Steragram. I remember being taken to see bluebells as a child and they still look exactly the same, many years later. They are at their best in vast quantities for sure. I can't remember the wild garlic, it seems a newer addition to woods but maybe that's just me? The phlox is soooooooo cute, I love it.

I planted some English Bluebells in a tub 2 years ago.
Just hope they carry on producing a few flowers in May
every year. Its well away from the Spanish ones.

Phloxes are lovely, there are so many types of them to be had.

Nice to live near a bluebell wood. I grew up by one.

As Hywel said, lovely to have a bluebell wood nearby. Back down in Kent I had one where I lived and would walk Ben every morning in it. Do miss it. Haven't found one up here. Do love Phlox. Yours looks very pretty. Really hope it does well for you.

Very stunning!

What a wonderful walk I love Bluebell woods fantastic pictures pretty Phlox.

I don't mind if they're English or Spanish, bluebells are pretty for sure, will try planting a pot for next year. The phlox are doing good so far, I never mind if flowers and plants are only for a short time. It actually makes them more special.

Hopefully the European countries that are banning the use of Glysophate weedkillers will lead to a resurgence of the old English natural wild flowers. Some countries are leading the way, the French are hoping to achieve this in 3 years. Its been a long time coming.

Sunny unfortunately the garlic in your picture is a thug and destroying the English Bluebell woods in my area they spread by seed and stifle the bluebell.

Maybe we need a world full of more woodland. If only life were so simple Bjs.

Lovely photographs Sunnydais, I do like your little nest, I've had one in my hedgerow for many years, the birds have never used it although Blackie has buit his nest next to it, lol, never has it occurred to me to plant it up, I might give that a go as yours look pretty...
