Pollinator 'California Bluebell'

California Bluebells are a dazzling addition to any garden, with rich cobalt-blue, bell-shaped flowers that bloom in abundance. Native to the American Southwest, these fast-growing annuals thrive in full sun and well-drained, poor soils—making them ideal for wildflower meadows or dry borders.

Bees and pollinators absolutely love them! Once established, they prefer low water conditions and are both drought-tolerant and easy to grow. Also known as Desert Bluebells or Desert Canterbury Bells. A relative of Borage.
