A quick trip out yesterday evening to this favourite site. It's interesting how far behind we are this year and how far ahead Tom is down in Surrey. While he is looking at a wide range of orchids our early purples are at their best and we still have cowslips and wood anemones out! Anyway the verges are beginning to come to life and it was lovely to see the globeflower coming into flower as well as the bird's-eye primroses.

| It has been a tad damp recently! |
 |
| Bord's-eye primrose, water avens, early purple orchids and wood anemones. |
 |
| Marsh marigolds. |
 |
| What will be a spectacular twayblade patch. |
 |
| Butterwort, cowslips and early purple. |

| Globe flower. |
