The flowering of the wood anemones is past its peak. The white petals are falling off and the beginnings of the fruits are visible on the plants that have been pollinated. But in the meantime, the white carpet of wood anemones has been replaced by the purple-blue sea of flowers of the bluebells. The flanks of the valleys are also getting a purple-blue colour. Just in time, because the leaves are opening on the large beech trees. The fresh green glass window of young beech leaves will become increasingly dense in the coming days and provide more shade on the flowers. In addition to celandine, herb-paris, greater stitchwort, Solomon’s seal and the violets, yellow archangel and wood sorrel are also in bloom. With all those spring colours, it is really enjoyable in the forest.
