Saltram

It was a beautiful sunny day so we went to see what new delights there were in Saltram Gardens.  The bluebells were now in flower and the rhododendrums were still spectacular.

Along one path were some very dark tulips.  They had quite small heads and there were not many of them, it looked as if there had been a bed of them in the past and these were all that were left.

After walking around the gardens we decided to walk further in Saltram Park.  We headed up towards Stage Gate, but then turned off to a path that led through woodland.  Here there were many more bluebells, mixed in with wild garlic and the occasional pink campion.

As we walked further along we came to a beautiful display of bluebells in the wood.
