I've got loads; there are so many round the site they must have been around for generations. But if you have native bluebells as well, don't plant the Spanish ones - they hybridise, and they're so much more vigorous than the natives that the pure native bluebell is disappearing in some areas.

grrrr....we have native ones and they're a b. nuisance....hope to have tamed them to just grow against the hedges. Damned things get into the allium beds >:(  Penalty of living opposite a bluebell wood.

If you have spares... I'd love to create a new bluebell wood!

Cheers!
