Ps. It’s against the law to intentionally pick, uproot or intentionally destroy bluebells. From National Trust: “Bluebells have soft, succulent leaves that are particularly sensitive to being trodden on. Once the leaves are damaged, they are unable to absorb the sun and photosynthesise, so they die back. In turn, this means they can’t put food back into their bulbs, reducing their ability to produce flowers and seeds.”
