Scilla 'Bifolia Blue'
£4.19
Unit price perGuaranteed delivery week: week commencing Monday 14 September 2026
Autumn planting bulbs and spring flowering plants will be delivered during this week.
Scilla 'Bifolia Blue' is a small but beautifully poised spring bulb, sending up clear blue, star-shaped flowers on a neat, low habit. It is particularly well suited to naturalising—tucked through grass, beneath shrubs, or threaded into the front of borders—where it will quietly return each year with minimal fuss.
It is equally charming in pots and troughs, where the colour reads as crisp and fresh in early spring. Plant in autumn, then allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering to build strength for seasons to come.
Why you’ll love it
- Refined, clear blue flowers with a star-shaped form
- Excellent for naturalising in lawns, under shrubs, and in borders
- Ideal for pots, troughs, and small-space planting
- Pollinator-friendly and fully hardy

Kind Words from Our Gardeners
Arrived quickly and well-packaged. Planted them in some pots on the patio and they all came up. Look beautiful. Thank you!
Careane Wallace
The bulbs arrived beautifully packaged and you could just tell they were excellent quality. We had the most wonderful display of daffodils this spring on our patio. Simply stunning. Will definitely be ordering again
David P
I ordered the mixed hyacinth collection and the scent in my garden this April was absolutely heavenly. Every single bulb produced a strong, beautiful flower and the colours were stunning together. A fantastic purchase, I'll be back for more next year!
