Top Tip
Deadheading fading blooms before they go to seed helps control how far bluebells spread.
How to Water
Water young plants regularly throughout the first growing season and then only during dry spells once established.
How to Plant
Choose a spot in partial shade and plant bluebell bulbs 8cm deep in moderately fertile, moist but well-draining soil. Ensure the point of the bulb is facing upwards and water in well after planting.
