The bluebell woods are fantastic this year.

However, I have to my absolute horror found 7 groups of bluebells in my garden.  Cannot explain from whence they came.  Fingers crossed I can eliminate them completely.

In the woods I think they are wonderful.

In a garden they are thugs and take over and smother other plants - they then become weeds i.e. plants growing in the wrong place.

I agree, art600. Hyacinthoides hispanica are even worse. The leaves smother everything and take their time dying down. I have some Spanish bluebells in the middle of a lovely patch of Asarum europaeum and have a real job trying to get rid of them. Mind you - in wilder parts of the garden I find them charming...

A very nice deep dark blue form flowering here at the moment, quite compact and highly scented :)

PS

anyone who is wanting to get rid of their bluebells, please bear me in mind, Here, they are not weeds to say the least, (I am envious of people who say that their bulbs become "weeds" and take over!) and I will happily take any that people dont want anymore :)
