This stunning two-tone grape hyacinth has deep wine-purple flower spikes tipped with a tuft of sky-blue flowers. It spreads easily, forming carpets of colour in spring, and looks lovely with daffodils and other spring bulbs. The broad green leaves make a lush backdrop for the striking flowers. An excellent performer in pots and borders, Muscari latifolium holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.

How you will receive your bulbs:

Selected by our team of experts and sent from our nursery, you will receive spring-flowering bulbs in the autumn in a breathable mesh bag. This is to keep the bulbs together in a pack that is nice and airy – perfect to keep the bulbs healthy while in transit.

Can’t plant straight away?

Keep your bulbs in a cool, light, and dry place and preferably hanging on a hook so that air can get to the bulbs at all angles. Ideally, you should aim to plant your bulbs within a week of receiving them, but if this is not possible, store them in a cool, dark place until you are ready to plant them.

Planting tips and hints:

Planting in the ground: You can plant your Muscari bulbs any time between September and November. Dig a hole with a trowel or a bulb planter approximately 10cm deep. Plant bulbs approximately 10cm apart. If planting in heavy soil, mix in some and potting grit to improve drainage. Place the bulb in the hole with the tip facing upwards, then fill the hole and compact the soil gently. Water in to moisten the soil.

Planting in containers: Use a mix of 2 parts bulb compost and 1 part potting grit for good drainage. Plant the bulbs in the compost about 10cm deep and 8cm apart. Water just enough to settle the soil, then place the container in part to full sun.

Aftercare: Allow the leaves to die back naturally before cutting them.
