Muscari armeniacum 'Heavenly Blue' - grape hyacinth

APPEARANCE: Compact growing spring flowering bulb featuring clusters of tiny blue grape- or bell-like flowers.
USE FOR: Mass plant under deciduous trees, or group closely in pots for bright spring flowering colour.
CLIMATE:Frost hardy to -15C, to semi-arid and subtropical

PLANTING:Muscari are happy in any fairly fertile, well-drained soil in full sun or part shade.
CARE: Once planted, water the soil to set the bulb in place. An occasional light watering is all that's needed until the first flowers appear. Water and feed weekly or if the soil becomes dry, give a good deep water (bulbs are generally at least 5 cms below the surface). Once flowering is finished leave plants to die back, it's not the prettiest sight but don't be tempted to trim the yellowing foliage. The nutrients are being drawn back into the bulbs for next year. When the bulbs die back completely remove spent foliage and leave in place for next season. Or remove for storage - gently dig up bulbs, wash soil away using water and a soft brush for stubborn spots. Place bulbs in a cool shady spot to dry, then store in a dark, well ventilated room. Paper bags are ideal, remember to label each variety!

Contains 10 bulbs.
