At this time of year woodland lovers marvel at the beauty of bluebells woods. Suddenly the usual green hue is carpetted in a luminous blue and sweet aroma. People tread carefully, if at all, so as to not trample all over these very welcomed inhabitants.
But its not just the bluebells that inhabit our woodlands at this time of year. When given some light through woodland management, such as coppicing, many other species of flower adorn the woodland floor. As I took a stroll through last years coup I was astonished to see the variety of woodland flowers and it really hit home how important woodland management is for the biodiversty of this ecosystem.
I have no idea what most of these flowers are so please enlightenment if you see any you recognise!
