Description / Mertensia Virginia Bluebells

Mertensia Virginia Bluebells is a native perennial that transforms spring gardens with its vibrant clusters of bell-shaped blooms. Growing 12 to 24 inches tall, the purplish-pink buds open to reveal stunning sky-blue flowers, perfectly accented by gray-green foliage. Loved by pollinators, these blooms bring life to any shady garden.

Hardy in Zones 4-9, Virginia bluebells (Mertensia virginica) are excellent for naturalizing and thrive in partial to full shade. Plant them in sweeping drifts under trees, alongside ferns and hostas, or in scattered groups for an enchanting woodland effect. These deer-resistant plants go dormant in summer and reemerge each spring, more vigorous than ever.

Choose a location with peaty, medium moist, freely draining soil, and plant Virginia bluebells roots in spring, 12 to 24 inches apart and 2 inches deep.

Native and eco-friendly, Virginia bluebells thrive without extra care while supporting wildlife and pollinators. However, wild Virginia bluebell populations are now endangered, but you can contribute to their preservation by adding them to your garden. Our nursery-grown plants are exclusively propagated commercially and never taken from their natural habitats.
