Springtime Awakening...Ethereal bluebells

Awww, loving the almost daily surprises of all the new Spring growth popping up around the farm.

 

English bluebells (Hyacinthoides non-scripta) are an introduced species in the Pacific Northwest and other parts of Canada. They date back to the early 1500s and are native to England and France.

 

In the United Kingdom, the bluebell is protected under the “Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981”. Landowners are prohibited from removing common bluebells on their land and it is a criminal offence to remove the bulbs of wild common bluebells. Source Wikipedia.

 

These fragrant spring bluish purplish delights reach heights of 12 inches and make beautiful cut flowers.
