Muscari azureum (pseudomuscari)

Muscari azureum is probably the easiest to grow and not at all invasive. Its tightly packed powder-blue flowers open at the tips. For a well-drained sink or rockery or in light soils at the front of a spring border. The ''Grape Hyacinths'' as the name implies are heavily scented. All do well in the drier, sunny conditions provided under deciduous shrubs in spring, with summer shade, but also make delightful subjects for mixed spring containers.

RHS Award of Garden Merit.
