Spring bulbs


Harlow Carr has abundant displays of spring bulbs of all colours, shapes and types. I'm sure they don't normally all bloom at the same time but that's this year for you, so mild and so little frost. Crocus, narcissus and hyacinths, tulips, scilla and some I don't recognise. 





There are some nice colour combinations too. The red dogwood stems are beginning to show leaf but the stems still glow. 




Rhododendrons are in bloom in the woodland. They're rather early too. Many of the bushes at Harlow Carr are very old and have grown very straggly, really past their best but still producing lots of flowers.

  2. Wow photos there are so many flowers blooming. The gone wild plants have a free charm about them.

  3. You have captured all the color of these blooms so well...and I know the bright sunshine makes it a bit harder to photograph. Thanks for sharing!
