Muscari

Muscari bulbs have their roots in the Mediterranean region, stretching from Turkey to the Caucasus. In the Netherlands, they are collectively referred to as grape hyacinths.  The Muscari adds a charming and vibrant touch to gardens with its various shades of blue, white and pinks.  Its compact stature and graceful flower spikes make it an ideal candidate for edging along pathways, framing boarders, or accenting the base of taller plantings of  mid season blooming tulips and double and botanical narcissus.  Like other bulbs it requires sunlight and well drained soils.  The flowers attract bees and butterflies by producing abundant pollen and nectar.
