- Plant purple flowers - Lilac, Alliums, Lavender, Pansies, Love-in the-Mist, Peonies, Iris, Primula and late flowering Tulips are all in bloom during May
- Grow it purple - Grow purple fruit and vegetables suchn as blackberries, plums, aubergine, red cabbage, beetroot, purple spouting broccoli and red onions.
- A beautiful splash of colour can make all the difference to a garden, so let’s get our gloves on and plant it purple for the Stroke Association.”If you have green fingers and are celebrating Action on Stroke Month with some purple blooms, remember to share your photos with us on Twitter - don't forget the hashtag #MakeMayPurple.
