British Wild Flower and Wild Plants - A to L.

English Wildflowers and Wild Plants spotted around The Chiltern's woods, meadows and fields in England.

One of the great features we have in our area (which is in The Chilterns on the Oxfordshire/Buckinghamshire border of England) are the massive displays of bluebells which can be seen around Wendover Woods and Christmas Common (and many other woods around here of course although those two areas have the best showing we have come across - so if you are wild about flowers the Chilterns is an ideal area to visit!). There has to be millions of these bluebells carpettng the woods and they seem to increase and spread further every year especially since in recent times people have stopped digging them up and taking them home - they are much better enjoyed in the wild.

Please note this section contains pictures of English wild flowers with names beginning "A" to and including "L" - please see our other Wild Flowers topic for pictures of British wild flowers with names "L" to "Y".

Probably a few of the Wild Plants and Wild flowers we have photographed are considered by some people to be "weeds" but most plants and flowers that grow do have their nice side if you care to look. Certainly the various flowers produced by nettles are really good - nettles are of course vital in a butterfly's life cycle - we have a patch of wild garden at home and keep several small clumps of nettles just for this reason. Then how about a nice sized thistle - the plants are really worth a close look - not only for the colours and textures but also because of the various bees, wasps, butterflies and so on which regularly visit (and need) them..
