Bluebell challenge- the highlights

Wildflowerhour this week was a glorious shimmering sea of blue, as so many of you joined in with the #bluebellchallenge!

You captured some incredible images. The talented @JoAnnuniki took this week’s star image above.

The beautiful photograph below of the native Hyacinthoides non-scripta was taken by @sarah_lambert7.

A striking very pale form of our native bluebell was spotted by @chilternwoods.

The hybrid bluebells that you found were, as to be expected, highly variable and differing in shape, hue and the arrangement of the individual flowers.

In this image snapped by @KateGold24 the blue anthers are clearly visible.

A carpet of bluebells is a breathtaking sight, further enhanced by the bluebells delightful fragrance. In this beautiful photograph by @dorsetphill you can almost imagine yourself lost amongst the delicate blooms.

We hope you enjoyed the #bluebellchallenge. Thank you so much for taking part!

More of your gorgeous finds can be seen in the collection below.
