Cherry Walk

Spring brings a sea of colour to Cherry Walk as the electric-blue Siberian Squill, Scilla siberica, burst into bloom. 300,000 bulbs planted here in 2002 flower between March and April under the cherry blossom.

Did you know?

• Two Scillas are native to Britain, the Autumn Squill, Scilla autumnalis, and the Spring Squill, Scilla verna.
• One of the most winter-hardy bulbs, they naturalise well in grass areas.
