East Anglian Bluebell Expedition

While we were eating cake in the café on the Snowdrop Walk this week, we talked about arranging an expedition to see bluebells.

We talked about various venues and I promised to do a bit of research ... we mentioned Blickling Hall ... it seems that there are lovely bluebell woods on the estate and of course there are lovely gardens, the house itself and several eateries). 

We won't be able to set a date yet as so much will depend on the weather between now and then, but what do you think?

    Slightly off topic, Dove...but it does offer an opportunity to show some bluebells I photographed near to where I live, and perhaps act as an appetizer. image

    It's a high-energy food - we're girding our loins for spring  ... baking also gives gardeners something useful to do in wet weather  image
