Every May in Spring Wood, Whalley there is the showdown between the bluebells and the Ramsons (wild garlic). The bluebells normally win the aesthetic contest with wonderful carpets of blue across the woodland floor. However, this year, they were relatively subdued and it was the Ramsons that impressed with almost dizzying blankets of white. Why this should be, who knows, but have a look at what I mean in the photos below (just click to enlarge).
