Bluebell flowers are flowers that are easily found in the Atlantic region of Spain and continue to rise to islands in the UK. This flower is not only beautiful, but also fragrant. Bluebell has a distinctive scent that may not be available from other flowers. In addition, bluebell flowers also have their own uniqueness. Unlike the other flowers that usually bloom facing the sky, bluebell flowers tend to grow curved so that the petals face down.
Even so, when it blooms perfectly, bluebell flowers can also grow to face the sky and no longer hang. When it's like this, we can see the petals more clearly as seen in the photo above.
Bluebell Hyacinthoides non-scripta
Bluebells spend most of the year as bulbs underground in ancient woodlands, only emerging to flower and leaf from April onwards. This early spring flowering allows them to make the most of the sunlight that is still able to make it to their forest floor habitat and attracts the attention of plenty of pollinating insects. Millions of bulbs may exist in one bluebell wood, causing the blue carpets we so keenly associate with spring, and new plants are sometimes able to split off from these bulbs and grow as clones.
