The deer ate most of my bluebells in previous years, so I named a deer, “Bluebell”, as a joke. However, this year I used deer repellent on them and had at least some to enjoy. 😊. Yours are lovely.
We have a forrest like that very close to me, here in Germany. Sunrise in such a place is magical. So sad i can´t add pictures. Really a stunning sight.
Amazing Dave, thanks so much for sharing. And you’re right, Britain’s coutryside is beautiful. A pity we’re not so welcome anymore. Greetings from Belgium, Rik
Being in the US, I had to check, but this is the bluebells known as Hyacinthoides non-scripta, order Asperagales, while where I live in Missouri, our bluebells are Mertensia virginica, order Boraginales, not to be confused with the Texas bluebells, Eustoma russallianum, order Gentianales. Whew! That’s confusing. Any other “bluebells” I’ve missed? 😬
@@D-H-D propably the combination, of soil the amount of filtered sunlight, the symbioses with the acient trees and the absolute indisturbance in decades of the surrounding
A beautiful bluebell wood full of colour, scent and birdsong is an antidote to many things as is nature full stop. Glorious indeed. Thanks Dave🦋🐝👍😊

It's the people running the EU we have a problem with, the same people who are causing havoc by allowing uncontrolled migration.
The woods surrounding Brussels have some amazing blue bells as well. Love those old forests
I bought some native bluebells from a reputable supplier, and I think they've all hybridised with the spanish hyacinths people buy cheaply.
... not to rain on your parade - that woodland looks, and sounds, lovely.

"A gruffalo ? What's a gruffalo? "
" A gruffalo ! Why, didn't you know ?
How is that "managed" Dave? I've got a similar situation at a client's garden but the grasses shade out the bluebells.
Old woods
@@Karincl7 Absolutely but I'm wondering how the bluebells become so dominant compared to alllll the others species?
