Hi All,

I am looking to plant bluebells in the lawn at the back of my

house.

agree with everything posted above....the 6 week after flowering

thing
applies...english bluebell the flowers are held all on one side of

the
stem, spanish the flowers are all around....theres got to better lawn
things though....how about snowdrop followed by narsissus and

siberian
squill...wots the latin is it Scilla ?...
avoid in borders my freinds Musacri...the dratted foliage hangs about
all year round looking naff.

Thanks all for the advice.

I think I will look at a small very early flowering bulb of some type.
Something to flower from late December to Feb would be good, were I can
cut the grass by around late March..any thoughts...?
