Bulb Mania 2006

The pictures below were taken on 11 April 2006.  The bulbs were late starting this year due to the cold weather and snow we have had in Cornwall.  But as always Eden has carpets of flowers everywhere.  The perfume from the hyacinths was wonderful.

Eden Time of Gifts - 2004

Below are pictures from Eden "Time of Gifts" during December - February.  Eden was one of the centres used for the National Lottery 10th anniversary celebrations. 

From November 2004 to February 2005 Eden’s visitors will be able to go from sub tropical to sub zero. It is not only a time for fun and celebration but also a time to rediscover the spirit, not just of Christmas, but of mid winter festivals of all kinds. The lake has been frozen and covered for ice skating.  During the celebrations Eden is open from 10am - 10pm.

Robins have made the temperate biome their home, you can even hear them singing during the evening!

For more information on the Eden Project visit their website.
