This weekend and the next week the forest will be beautiful with flowering anemones. The hottest day of the year did not miss its effect. Everywhere, purple sprouting buds and flowering hyacinths appear. But it’s not yet a ‘blue wood’.

There are wood anemones in abundance: everywhere, the forest floor is white and green. This weekend the forest will be beautiful with flowering anemones.  The warm period will help the bluebells to come into bloom. Every day more bluebells are flowering, but a “blue carpet” is definitely not yet there for this weekend. Probably the best periode for a ‘blue forest’ will be April 20th-30th. A prolonged warm period may accelerate flowering. The magical time can then start before April 20th.  It’s best to keep an eye on the site to follow the evolution of the flowering.

Wonderful! Sun! Warmth! Lesser celandine and wood anemones enjoy full of blissful spring weather. With their petals spread wide open they don’t miss a minute of sunlight. The next days many more anemones will flourish. The white flowers of the anemones are like white stars on a deep green carpet of bluebell leaves. The wild daffodils are starting to go over. Here and there flower buds of wild bluebells are shooting up. In many plants the flower buds are still deeply hidden. A “blue carpet” is definitely not yet there for this weekend. This weekend the forest will be beautiful with flowering anemones.

The wild daffodils are still pretty but they are starting to go over. These are the last days to enjoy the ‘Easter flowers’. Flowering anemones take over the forest. But they long for the sun. The first bluebells are flowering. But the forest is still ‘green’ and a “blue carpet” is definitely not yet there for the next week. The second half of April will be the best time for flowering bluebells.

Finally, the first flowering bluebells. As the daffodils and anemones ten days later than last year. The daffodils are still beautiful. They continue to stand out in the forest because the wood anemones are not yet in full bloom. We won’t see a blue forest full of bluebells the next week. If you come from far away, especially to see the bluebells, it’s best to wait for a visit to the forest.

The daffodils are now at their most beautiful. Everywhere in the forest, like white little stars, wood anemone flowers appear. The weather forecast is not brilliant for the next week. We won’t see a blue forest full of bluebells in March and the first week of April. If you come from far away, especially to see the bluebells, it’s best to wait for a visit to the forest. Probably the best period for bluebells will be the second half of April.

The wild daffodils are coming nicely in bloom.  On the edges of the paths the yellow flowers of the lesser celandine greet the sun. The first wood anemone are flowering, they are still very small.
