Bellflowers



From the delicate Muscari and Spanish Hyacinth to the grand Carolina Silver Bell tree, spring welcomes you to the garden with bells on. From spring, right into winter, there is always a bell silently ringing in the garden. There are many blooms, from tiny bulbs to huge trees, that resemble bells. Some bloom in clusters, some bloom up the stem, while others are single bells standing out for all to see.

too delicates to attract

Flowers are not the first thing that comes to mind when most people think of bells. This, however, is not so with a gardener. They will typically equate anything said in everyday conversation with what is blooming in their gardens. This is due to the fact that most gardeners live and breath every aspect of what goes on in their beautiful gardens. New and different blooms will add interest to your garden space.
