There is an ancient, delicate flower that blooms every year as the earth warms and the leaves begin to form a canopy over the old woodlands of Europe. When it comes out, millions of violet and blue flowers carpet the forest floors as far as the eye can see, and their strong, sweet scent wafers across the air, turning the forest into something a bit more magical and mysterious.
These bluebells have an almost enchanting quality to them, which earned them the name 'Fairy Flowers'. We hope that you too will one day find the time to stroll among these beautiful delicate flowers, but until then, enjoy these heavenly photos of their beauty.



This magical carpet of bluebells makes for a dreamy landscape and may be the reason these flowers have earned the nickname "Fairy Flowers". England boasts the largest number of bluebell flowers in the world, and Micheldever Wood often has this amazing blue and purple display.

Ashridge forest, in England. These are protected flowers by law, but even before it was instituted in the law, there were stories of dark fates awaiting those who pick these 'fairy flowers'. Stories tell of a pixie that would lead the picker away, never to be seen again.

A tragic tale by Paul McCartney of the Beatles, is that he whispered these last words to his wife Linda, before she died. "You’re up on your beautiful Appaloosa stallion. It’s a fine spring day, we’re riding through the woods. The bluebells are all out, and the sky is clear blue."
McCartney later said that he had hardly got to the end of the sentence before his beloved closed her eyes and gently slipped away...
