How to Grow Non Scripta Buebell Bulbs in Ireland

Plant non-scripta bluebell bulbs in autumn in a shady or woodland-style area with moist, well-drained soil. These native Irish bluebells are perfect for naturalising and thrive in cool, damp conditions typical of Irish gardens.

• Spacing: 7–10 cm apart

• Soil: Moist but well-drained, rich in organic matter

• Sunlight: Partial shade to full shade

• Blooming Time: April to May

Hyacinthoides non-scripta is one of the best spring bulbs for bees, offering an early and reliable source of nectar and pollen, while supporting biodiversity and native Irish wildflower conservation. This variety is also commonly know as Native Bluebell, English Bluebell or Wild Hyacinth.
