Managed to pot up the Echinops ritro and some yellow chard seedlings. Planted some more snakeshead fritillary blubs as well. Collected lots of perennial seeds from the garden as it was a nice dry afternoon.

Tired legs at Base Camp tonight. Hiked Cavendish Road, Snakeshead, and that after a morning spent scampering about at Belvedere in the footsteps of the French! #Cassino #Recce #WW2 Also negotiated mountain driving for the first time without falling off or hitting anything 💪🏼

I absolutely love the snakeshead but I think that the yellow backdrop gives a very spring-like, cheerful feeling.
Both are beautiful and whatever you choose will be wonderful.

There are thousands of snakeshead fritillaries in the water meadow at Magdalen college, Oxford right now. (And a few in my garden!). They are stunning flowers.

Got my child benefit so splurged on B&M bulbs for the garden.
Screw you, Liz Kendall!
(Don't worry, only a fraction of it. The rest went on booze and cigs, natch)

Snakeshead fritillary. Once a common sight, this rare spring wildflower is easily identified by its bell-like flower with a chequered pattern #SnakesheadFritilliary #Spring #Wildflower #Bloom #Chequered #BellFlower #Meadow #Wetland #Flora

Approx 3 weeks after the white Snakeshead Fritillary has bloomed, the purple version comes into flower - this one is from 2014
