EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo, captured by the talented Marcus Webb, we witness a delightful scene of nature's mischievousness. A young Blackthorn sapling, belonging to the Prunus spinosa family, has cunningly made its way from a flowering hedgerow into a garden allotment in Bacton, Suffolk. With April showers bringing May flowers, this little sapling couldn't resist the allure of the lush garden plot nearby. Its vibrant blooms and foliage stand out against the backdrop of East Anglia's picturesque countryside. The deciduous shrub proudly showcases its delicate leaves and promises future harvests of sloes - those beloved dark purple berries used for making delicious liqueurs. As if playing hide-and-seek with human intervention, this cheeky European native tree encroaches upon an English gardener's territory. It seems that even plants can't resist the allure of these charming allotments! Springtime brings forth new life and growth everywhere you look; it is no wonder that our blackthorn friend decided to join in on the fun! With each passing day, it inches closer to claiming its spot within this enchanting garden oasis. So next time you venture into your own green sanctuary or stumble upon a hidden gem like Bacton's secret visitor here – be prepared for Mother Nature’s playful surprises!
