A year of Flowers in Charmouth
January
February
Primroses are already prolific in February and you need look no further than the garden of The Elms. Daffodils are becoming very prominent too and the yellow theme is extended by the common celadines and dandelions which are equally spectacular when you look closely.
The crocus were donated by Rotary two years ago to commemorate eradication worldwide of polio.
Ornamentals like cyclamen and camellias add to the colour palette brightening the village.
March
In the welcome sunshine, it is still the garden 'exotics' which dominate, including in the Jubilee Garden: the almond blossom suggests there will be much more to sustain the pollinators before long.
April
Blocks of colour in gardens provide a happy prelude to the more subtle wild flowers to come.
