The Hyacinth flower plant typically blooms in the early spring but will actually continue to bloom every year as long as you take good care of it and give it the proper maintenance that it needs. The sweet-smelling flowers come on a variety of other colors, all of them beautiful bell shaped beauties.

3. Muscari

These unique flowers shaped like cute little bells have also been given the nickname “grape flowers”. This is because they look like a cluster of grapes and if you get close enough, give off a sweet scent, too. 

White Bell Shaped Flowers

These white flowers can help add an overall calming and clean look to the perimeter of your home. White flowers are also a fun visual to mix in with other colors of flowers, too.

5. White Mountain Heather

This common white flower is known to most people as “Western Moss Heather” and is typically found growing in the Northern parts of America, such as California and even Alaska. 

6. Lily of the Valley

One of my favorite flowers! Dainty and deliciously smelling could be two words to describe this white flower. It can be seen growing in the wild but does well planted in your garden too. It can become invasive in some parts of the country. I personally wouldn’t mind a backyard full of them, but sadly, I have not experienced them being invasive.  Lily of the valley has an unmistakable sweet smell during the spring months when it’s blooming. 

Blue Bell Shaped Flowers

While many colors are abundant in landscapes, blue flowers are rare. But blue flowers are so pretty! They add a dreamy feel to any garden. See if you can find some blue belllike flowers you can add to your landscape.

7. Blue Delphiniums

Blue Siberian larkspur, Chinese delphinium - seeds

These blue beauties will grow back each year and produce stunning flowers that are typically dark blue in color.

Make certain to keep them away from livestock as they are toxic for them to consume. (These flowers are also toxic for humans if ingested. Not something that is done, but still important to know.)

8. Gentians

HOT!! - 15 Blue STEMLESS Gentian Gentiana Acaulis Kochiana Flower Seeds

With over 400 different types of this flower, you’ll notice several shapes and colors. The shape of this blue flower actually tends to look longer with a big opening, but it is still classified as being bell-shaped.

9. Desert Bluebells

These dark blue flowers are quite stunning. They also have yellow anthers that are very noticeable against the blue coloring that protrudes out of the middle of the blooming flower. 

Yellow Bell Shaped Flowers

This yellow flower listed below offers beautiful colors for spring. It’s just light enough to be subtle but bright enough to catch the eye. 

10. Fritillaria imperialis lutea

Fritillaria imperialis Lutea (5 Bulb)Deer and Rodents wont eat Blooms Mid-Spring

Gorgeous yellow flowers, a delight in almost any setting! Their unusual profile draws the eye like a magnet. The fritillaria grows well in full sun and rich, well-drained soil that stays dry in summer. With a light skunk smell, the bulbs are avoided by pests, such as deer, rabbits, and voles.

11. Angel’s Trumpet

There is no doubt that these flowers were meant to stand out. They are quite large in size and will appear to droop just a bit too because of their size. These are good for planted pots and also for hanging plants on your porch area as well. 

Pink Bell Shaped Flowers

Adding in some light pink undertones and coloring to your yard can be quite beautiful.

12. Foxglove

This flower will actually grow in the wild on its own, but it can be planted and grown as well. Even though the pink coloring is one of the more popular choices because of the beauty of it, Foxglove flowers can also bloom in white and yellow, too. 

13. Fuchsia

Many are fans of this type of bell shaped flower because it has quite a long blooming season compared to other options. Once planted and blooming, the flowers will be bright and beautiful from summer into the early fall. Here’s how to care for fuchsia plants.

Bell Shaped Perennial Flowers

Some of the flowers that have been mentioned so far have been ones that will grow back on their own but here are several options for perennial flowers that take minimal maintenance to bloom and grow back year after year. 

14. Twinflower

Linnaea borealis -  pink bell-shaped flower

These tiny bloomers are pretty and small and are typically grown in forested areas. As their name suggests, they bloom in pairs on the stalks. 

15. Coral Bells

Coral bells in the garden

Most people see these all over the place. They are the flowers that are tall and wispy and are used quite frequently for landscaping projects or in flower gardens. This is because they’re easy to grow and require very minimal maintenance. 

16. Beardtongue Flower

Bell shaped  light purple Beardtongue flowers

The popularity of these flowers has a dual purpose because not only are they pretty to look at and they’re great to grow back yearly on their own, but they also attract hummingbirds which adds a whole other level of beauty. 

17. Trumpet Vine

Trumpet vine flowers

This is a very fast-growing perennial flower that does require a bit of maintenance and shaping. If not, it can grow quickly and easily overtake an area. (although it’s quite lovely to look at!) 

18. Columbine

There are actually several colors that will bloom with this perennial plant. Another bonus is that these flowers will bloom in the early part of spring throughout the early summer months as well. Columbines reseed themselves and can create quite a show if you plant different colored ones.
