Hyacinthoides non-scripta - Bluebell (Coinnle corra) For many people in Ireland, the emergence of the native Bluebell is the sign that Spring has sprung. Indeed from April through to May, Hyacinthoides non-scripta shows off its stunning tubular, purplish-blue flowers, curving backwards at the tips, four to fifteen on a smooth green raceme arching under their weight. This is a bulbous, clump-forming and spreading native wildflower of which the fragrance is quite something: a perfect classic woodland plant for any gardener that enjoys colour and scent.
