Several large patches of these lovely Lungworts were flowering prolifically along a bank by the High Heathercombe Centre. Plant breeders have cultivated many varieties but this looks to be one of the wild ones- the Common Lungwort (Pulmonaria officinalis).
 Like many of our "common" wildflowers it isn't very common anymore and to my eye it's uncommonly beautiful. The flowers are raised above speckled leaves and morph from reddish pink to violet blue as they mature. P. officinalis is a herald of spring and it was a joy to see so many of them shimmering in the sun.
