Japonica and azalea
The japonica and azalea bushes have been planted together by one of the entrances to West Park so their flowers should form a nice contrast. Unfortunately their flowering seasons didn’t quite coincide this year.

A primitive, non-flowering plant, and doesn’t it look odd.

Pictured for the record. In my opinion bluebells are only interesting when in flower.
