Up close and personal with the Scottish bluebell


 More bluebells from Kinclaven...you'll probably get
a bit sick of seeing these after a while! Feel free to
comment because I'd love to hear any tips or constructive criticism you might have for me!

Here's something you might find interesting:

The true Scottish bluebell is under threat from hybrids, created through the crossing of Scottish bluebells and Spanish bluebells. These hybrids don't have any scent and out compete the native plant for space etc. So, if you're in to plants you can order a packet of native bluebell seeds and plant them in your garden to help save the British bluebell!
