Hyacinthoides non-scripta - Bluebell


This Bluebell was one I came across in Plattfields park, late winter. It is an attractive, hairless, bulbous perennial that grows in woodland and also on coastal cliffs.  Its flowers are mostly blue, however they can also occasionally be pink or white. The perennial grows in most soils and in part shade – widespread throughout and sometimes locally abundant.
