Fantastic display. Those blue ones in the front have withered already here in Belgium. It’s extremely dry. I’m thinking of changing some plants to ones more resitant to drought.
This photo was from earlier in the week, but it’s true, most of the bluebells here are also going over, if not gone: I believe April in the UK has been the warmest since records began. We’ve had the occasional rain shower here too but nothing to match the continuous rain we had for several weeks earlier this year which led to dreadful flooding.
Similar here, parts of my garden have been flooded for 3 weeks in february-march. Luckily everything survived. But sadly it hasn’t rained enough since. Half a metre under the soil it’s dry.
We had nothing like the flooding that was in the valley bottom (our house is about 50 metres uphill from the bridge) and our garden shrugged off excess water. Certainly it made our plants lusher, and everything seems to be still surviving. Hope the situation changes with you for the better. https://wp.me/s2oNj1-deluge

Everything is okay now, but I fear for the summer.
