Ramsom


If you're walking near Menlough Castle in Galway, you'll probably smell the ramsoms (allium ursinum) before you see them. A creamy white carpet of blossoms covers the woodland floor and there is a distinctly garlicy smell from them. Early May is the time to see them, so don't miss the opportunity. *

I just want to step into the frame..I can imagine the smell.
I want to be there... beautiful !

I also loved the Bluebell photo..simply delightful. And the railway and (previous) local government information was interesting and enjoyable reading.

Your site is a pleasure to view.

The castle is on my list for this month. With a little luck.. I might even cycle out.
