Bluebell displays in Hampshire
A hazy violet carpet of bluebells in a dappled wood is an incredibly uplifting sight in late spring. The native bluebell is one of our best-loved British flowers. It needs ancient or semi-natural woodland, and the National Trust plays a big part in ensuring its survival. A quarter of our woodland provides the ideal habitat for native bluebells to flourish. Here are some of the best places in Hampshire to see them. Keeping to the paths will help to preserve these fragile flowers, which don’t grow back if they are walked on. Bring suitable footwear in case paths are muddy.
