Feels like an immense privilege to have been on holiday for a few days. All over the Argyll coast, bluebells are in full flower. I&#8217;m not sure if it&#8217;s a good year, or if they always put on such a fabulous display, but every scrap of woodland seemed to be filled with their colour and scent.   Argyll is also an amazing place for it&#8217;s coastal and woodland gardens.   This week&#8217;s six is simply a set of photos from the An Cala Garden, covering just a couple of acres on Seil Island, near Oban.  The weather was &#8216;mixed&#8217;, the midges were attending, but WOW. The primula, azelea and rhododendron were just mind blowing in their colour and vibrancy.  As my partner commented, &#8216;one of the best gardens I have ever seen&#8217;. Nuff said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"442\"
