Hyacinthoides hispanica ‘Pink Queen’ is a beautiful pink Spanish Bluebell, producing soft pastel-pink flower spikes above slender green leaves each spring. It’s an easy way to add gentle colour and elegance to shadier parts of the garden, and it naturalises readily, returning year after year with very little fuss.
Plant in bold clumps under taller trees, along shady borders, or in woodland-style areas for the best effect. ‘Pink Queen’ is also surprisingly good as a cut flower, bringing a delicate spring feel indoors.

Planting guide
Plant in autumn in a well-drained spot (sun to part shade). Leave bulbs undisturbed once established and they will gradually multiply over time.
Scilla, also known as Bluebells, are the ideal Bulb for Naturalizing - they are hardy wee things, that enjoy part shade. Perfect for undertree plantings.
Not that long ago these bulbs were known mostly as Scilla…. The name has moved on a bit, but shrubs and summer-flowering perennials will still be brightened up by planting these lovely bulbs in among them. And the big benefit is their ability to multiply every year.
There are two types of Bluebells - English Bluebells, and the more common variety found in New Zealand, the Spanish Bluebells. Spanish Bluebells grow much easier in our climate, hence why you’ll see a lot more of these than the English version.
