    Bluebells, well-known woodland colonizer, an excellent plant, see the photo in Rix, bulbs.

    True stock of this legendary wildflower is all but impossible to get today (it crosses too freely with Spanish bluebells in the Dutch bulb fields), but ours come from a small nursery in Wales where it's native and still 100% pure. With slender, arching, honey-scented blooms, it's easy to see why it's been so well-loved for so long though please note that unless you live in a mild, moist climate, Spanish bluebells (above) are much easier to grow. 12-15", zones 6a-7b(9bWC)
