Description

With their intense indigo blue colour and sweetly fragrant perfume, Bluebells boldly herald the arrival of Spring and the onset of warmer weather.

You can now create your own carpet of these pretty woodland favourites in your garden. Simply plant them in a shady spot at the base of a hedge or around the base of a tree where they will naturalise just like in the wild. As is the case with Snowdrops, planting Bluebells 'in the green', when they are in leaf and still growing, is by far and away the most successful method of establishing them and is much more successful than planting dry bulbs in the Autumn.

Top Tips
Grow your bluebells in moist but well-drained soil in sun to partial shade.
Care Information
  • Plant bulbs in groups in early autumn, with the pointed growing tip upwards, 10-15cm deep, 10cm apart, allowing room for clumps to naturalise and spread.
  • They thrive in well-drained soils, rich in organic matter.
  • Apply an organic mulch to improve poor soil and water well after planting.
  • Ideally positioned in dappled shade, they are tolerant of full sun through to full shade.
  • If planting in grass, avoid mowing until the leaves have died back.
  • Bluebells can become overcrowded after a few years.
  • Lift the bulbs after flowering and divide offsets and large clumps for replanting.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
