Tall spikes of fresh apple-green bells arranged all the way up the stem. An outstanding foliage plant.

One of my favourite plants for summer and autumn arranging. Put the seed in the freezer for a week before you sow it to guarantee good germination.

PLEASE NOTE: The foliage on bells-of-Ireland is prickly and can be irritating to the skin. When using for cut flower material remove the leaves to avoid allergic reactions or rashes. This will also allow for the beautiful green bells to show much better.
