Very cool. I bet that area will look super-lush when all the leaves are fully developed. I also added a picture to mine showing the flowers in full bloom. They are the least impressive flowers I have ever seen but no one ever sees them that closely anyway other than the insects that pollinate them. ;)
Thank you Angel. I've added another photo of the hábitat and place where I took them.
These grow wild here where I live and the animals are browsing the vegetation right now (yuck). I just uploaded a picture of one of this season's first blooms. Very excited! I did not know they grew in the UK but should have guessed. The environments are similar.
