Description of Virginia bluebells: Virginia bluebells grow 2 feet tall and form dense colonies in wooded areas in early spring. Loads of two-toned bell-shaped flowers hang down from the stems in large clusters. Flower buds are pink and turn lavender-blue as they age. Plants spread by seedlings and, over time, will colonize a large area that is to their liking. Foliage yellows and disappears after plants quit flowering. Virginia bluebells are a delightful spring wildflower with soft, cool green foliage and two-toned pink and blue flowers. They make a beautiful carpet under deciduous trees and are the perfect foil for daffodils. Because bluebells go dormant and disappear after flowering they are referred to as spring ephemerals. Virginia bluebell (Mertensia virginica), also known as Virginia Cowslip, is a charming wildflower that, under the right conditions, will be right at home in the home landscape. Although the early spring blooms of Virginia bluebells are short-lived, the clusters of blue, bell-shaped flowers will take center stage until summer bloomers take their place. Start early, and plant Virginia bluebells by seed, and they'll be ready for their outdoor home in spring.How to Grow Virginia Bluebells Things You'll Need Virginia bluebell seeds Plastic bag Peat moss Seedling tray Commercial potting soil Spray mister Instructions 1Plan to start Virginia bluebells seeds at least four months before the last expected frost for your area.
