May now linked with the phrase 'no mow May' as councils, organisations and individuals leave areas of grass to grow. Interesting not least to observe the other plants that emerge with the grass and likewise the insects taking the opportunity to make the most of the wildflowers. One of our successes has been the establishing of Alliums in a grass area near the top of the path to Church Street South. The purple flower heads are stunning and bees are busy visiting them, lovely to observe in the dappled sunshine under the tree canopy. Finally I cannot let this months entry go without mentioning the lovely Hawthorn tree in the old churchyard, the sheer amount of blossom is stunning and a joy to behold.
