- Bells of Ireland isn't just for the Irish anymore. They are a great
filler alongside bright flowers in the garden or in large bouquets. But
they're not flowers, they're bracts. That's right! Now you can
impress relatives and friends by explaining that the bells on your Bells of
Ireland are actually bracts. Small membranous, leaf-like organs.
To really impress them, take the opportunity to refer to small ones as
bractlets.
Bells of Ireland prefer a cold period before germination, so to start them
indoors, put the seed in your refrigerator for 6-8 weeks before starting.
It's best to sow directly in your garden in April to produce stalks with many
bracts in June. Just press seeds lightly into soil. They need
light to germinate. Beware of late-sowing however. High soil
temperatures can cause irregular germination. When using the stalks in
flower arrangements, remove the leave between the bracts.
