English bluebells are at their happiest when growing in the dappled shade of deciduous trees. They're ideal for a woodland garden or naturalising in informal areas of grass. These vigorous beauties will multiply each year to form a dense carpet of spring colour. With their beautiful fragrance they're an ideal choice for attracting early emerging wildlife. For smaller gardens where there is less space for naturalising they can also be grown in patio pots
