Plant a natural legacy

Create an Irish woodland-inspired spring garden with our Woodland Bulb Collection, featuring carefully selected naturalising spring bulbs including Irish Native Bluebells, Snowdrops and Crocus. Perfect for planting beneath deciduous trees, along woodland edges and in lightly shaded gardens, these spring bulbs will naturalise over time, creating beautiful drifts that return year after year.

There is something deeply familiar about the first flowers of spring. Snowdrops pushing through cold soil. Crocus opening on a bright February day. Bluebells arriving later, turning woodland floors and shaded garden corners into a haze of blue.

Our Woodland Collection brings together three classic spring flowers chosen to naturalise over time, returning year after year and slowly settling into the landscape.

This is not a collection for straight lines or formal beds. For the most natural effect, plant in loose drifts beneath trees, along hedgerows or in lightly shaded garden corners. Scatter small handfuls gently across the ground and plant them where they fall – the way nature might have placed them herself.

Over time, these bulbs will create a succession of spring colour, from the earliest snowdrops and crocus through to the unmistakable bluebells of late spring, offering colour and early-season support for emerging pollinators.

A collection to plant once, and watch become part of the place.

What's Included

• 35 Irish Native Bluebells (Hyacinthoides non-scripta)

• 50 Mixed Species Crocus

Flowering Period

Flowering times are approximate and will vary depending on local conditions and seasonal weather.

Best For

Woodland edges, lightly shaded gardens, beneath deciduous trees, hedgerows, informal grass and quiet corners where you want spring to return year after year.

Planting Advice

Plant between September and November in moist, well-drained soil. Choose a position with partial shade or dappled sunlight, allowing plenty of early spring light before deciduous trees come into leaf.

For a natural woodland effect, scatter bulbs in small groups and plant where they land. This creates soft, irregular drifts that feel much closer to how spring flowers appear in the wild.

Allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering to help bulbs build energy for the following year.

Why We Love It

Unlike many spring bulb collections that focus purely on colour, this collection has been chosen to capture the natural succession of flowers associated with woodland habitats.

From the first snowdrops of winter to the delicate crocus of early spring and the beautiful bluebells that follow, each variety has its moment.

The result is a long-lasting display that offers valuable early-season forage for pollinators, returns reliably each spring and becomes more established with time.
