Are all bluebells blue? I have plants wityh small bell shaped flowers but some are white and others violet!?
I remember reading that the university (I think it was Texas A %26amp; M) had worked on having different colored blluebell, they were able to create some white and some reddish colored ones. So they may be the varigated one that you have.

Reply:In the UK the native bluebells are being taken over in some places by the Spanish bluebell, which looks the same though has a slightly larger flower, and also comes up in different shades of blue through light blue and lilac or pink. And very light pink verging on white.
Reply:they're either snowdrops and bluebells or perhaps harebells. apparently you can get white or even pink bluebells, but i'm not sure.
Reply:I thought the white ones were called harebells. Not sure where I heard it though.
Reply:blue bells are violet.
Reply:Traditionally yes although I too have white and pink ones in my garden - I think nature is marvellous.
The bluebells came early this year and are almost over - their month is usually May.
Reply:i think the white ones are snowdrops and the violet ones bluebells

I have some white bluebells too - they are most definitely not snowdrops!!
Reply:Hi!!
No, all bluebells are not blue. That's the common name for the family of flowers, Campanulaceae. There are other colors, like you mentioned. Also, there are some that change colors as they mature and fade. Note, I'm talking about the originals: wildflowers. I'm sure there are other ones you can purchase with even more variety.
