Bluebells

Simon Halpin asked 13 years ago

I am just wondering about an area of bluebells that I planted in the autumn – they were planted in a mixture of compost and good soil in mid to late October in a shady site underneath a tree. They have not as yet begun to emerge above the ground and I am wondering is that normal for this time of year given the bad weather before Christmas or should they have started to come up by now?

It is early days for bluebells to be showing in January, especially after a hard winter.

Also bulbs in their first year in a new site often take a little longer to adapt, straighten up, get rooted, and so on.
