Good morning GTers! The Spanish #bluebell isn't as refined as the English one in my opinion, but they're still quite pretty, and a lot easier to grow! Have a fab Friday everyone! 😀 #blue

I have these invading my whole garden I love the look of them but dread having to pull the dead heads up and the way they appear where you don't want them. Real love hate relationship for me 😁

@nessas There is a good ID quiz on a website, I think the woodlands Trust. I’ll see if I can find it. Edit: I’ve found this http://www.bbowt.org.uk/blog/bbowtblog/2016/04/18/how-tell-difference-between-native-bluebell-and-spanish-bluebell

Good afternoon GT peeps! Finished work early and should really go and do something in the garden, however, I think the pub would like me to go and try some lunch! lol I'll leave you with a low down view of this Spanish #bluebell until I return! Enjoy your afternoon everyone! ☀️😀

I'm just off for a drive out in the sunshine to see a patient and then home to finish writing up my research project! Might be able to grab a coffee in the garden though in between. Enjoy the pub! #jealous

Theoretically these #bluebell aren't in my garden - yet! They are being donated by my dad to populate a dark corner and will be arriving soon! 😄

Yes, will be planting them out if it ever stops raining! @latebloomer 😄

I'm hoping they like the clay they'll be going into eventually - they are currently residing in new multi-purpose compost in a big pot! Will post when they're in! 😄 @latebloomer
