About This Plant
A classic spring ephemeral, Virginia bluebells are gorgeous when planted in mass and are recommended for home landscapes, particularly shaded woodlands. Pink buds will give way to blue and sometimes pink bell-shaped flowers that attract a lot of early pollinators. If undisturbed and happy, it will form colonies.
