Scottish bluebells


Scottish bluebells (Hyacinthoides non-scripta).  Scottish bluebells can be found here or there in the woods at Clegg Garden.   They are not native and are not related to our native Virginia bluebells (Mertensia virginica) which are quite common at Clegg Garden.  Doubtless the Scottish bluebells were planted here years ago and as they are a perennial, the flowers return in the same place every spring.
