10,000 : 1 !

Apparently " very occasionally, within a population of bluebells, a genetic mutation may occur, which results in a white flowered bluebell. It is estimated that the proportion of blue to white flowered is 10,000 to 1." I don't plan to check this statement. These were amongst some of The Argory bluebells.
Thanks Miranda1008 for hosting Wild Flower week
