Crocuses and a Monkey Puzzle Tree

Friday 21st February 2014

We had a quick two mile walk around Southampton Common this morning, probably not my best idea as it was half term and there were lots of people, children, dogs, cyclists, joggers and pushchairs about.  Near one of the exits we came across this swathe of crocuses.  I had to go across country to take this!



Close to the Common I saw this Monkey Puzzle Tree, I have never noticed it before, maybe because it's not the normal shape of one, it's lower branches have been lopped a bit!  It's a lot bigger and older than the one we saw at Nomansland a couple of weeks ago that's for sure.

A monkey puzzle tree.
