Thank you for taking a look at my images.

This Spanish Bluebell (Hyacinthoides Hispanica) is looked upon by some as an invasive species? I don't know enough about them to form an opinion?

All I know is that they are supposed to be quite poisonous?

They can be a blue colour similar to our native Bluebell, a pinkish colour, or in this case white.

In the foreground is a native Bluebell, and to the left is 'Galium aparine' commonly known as 'Cleavers' or 'Catchweed'.

***************

▶ "Hyacinthoides hispanica— commonly known as the Spanish bluebell— is a spring-flowering bulbous perennial in the Asparagaceae family, native to the Iberian Peninsula. It is one of around a dozen species in the genus Hyacinthoides, others including the common bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta) in northwestern Europe, and the Italian bluebell (Hyacinthoides italica) further east in the Mediterranean region.

 

Hyacinthoides hispanica has naturalized and is cultivated in other European countries, as well as in North America and Australia. Blue, pink, and white-flowered forms occur. It is distinguished from the common bluebell by its paler and larger flowers, not all drooping to one side; and little or no scent."

▶ The East Decatur Greenway extends, unpaved, about 1/3-mile beyond its paved southern terminus. Continuing through a wildflower garden, it crosses Cecilia Creek (aka East Fork Middle Branch Shoal Creek), and concludes alongside the eastern bank of the creek. There, several wild colonies of Spanish bluebells (both purple and white-blossomed) bloom in late winter and early spring.
