Blue Bells

Our featured flower of the month is Blue Bells. Bluebells, particularly the English bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta), are native to Western Europe, especially the UK and Iberian Peninsula. They thrive in woodlands and shaded areas, forming dense carpets of violet-blue flowers in spring. Bluebells prefer moist, well-drained soils rich in organic matter and can spread through bulbs and seeds. They are known for their sweet fragrance and are often associated with folklore and symbolism, representing humility, gratitude, and constancy. However, some species like the Spanish bluebells, can be more vigorous and hybridize with native varieties. Cheers
