jessiet Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Woolley Woods,Yes the display is as spectacular every year. You can get into serious trouble for picking them now though as they are a protected spieces. I live just across from the woods and when me and my children go for a walk in the woods we always come home with a bunch of bluebells,theres enough of them.

Not for long if you carry on picking them. If everybody took your view and picked them they'd soon be gone. Why not enjoy them where they are, they don't last long if they're picked anyway.

soft ayperth Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'm with algy on this jessiet. Too many animals and plants around the world are near extinction. If you were to photograph the bluebells with your kids and explain to them why it's best not to pick them, you'd be in a win-win situation. That said, I recognize that you're not doing anything to deliberately harm them. Have fun in your beautiful bluebell-carpeted woods. Wish we had them over here. Cheers.
