Description
Muscari 'Bling Bling' is the definition of flashy and fabulous! This stunning grape hyacinth variety will add instant pizzazz and glamour to any garden. Its deep blue to purple blooms, which reach up to 15cm tall, have a delicate, bell-shaped appearance. Muscari azureum 'Bling Bling' is a bulbous perennial and perfect for low-maintenance gardens, as it requires minimal attention and will even thrive in poor soil.
Best of all, its vibrant, eye-catching hue is sure to turn heads and bring a touch of glitz and glamour to your outdoor space. Whether you have a small balcony or a sprawling yard, this shiny grape hyacinth is the perfect way to add a bit of sparkle and shine to your garden. Get ready to dazzle and shine with Muscari 'Bling Bling!'
Muscari is a wonderfully low-maintenance plant, deserving of a place in every garden. It will naturalise readily and provide many weeks of colour, while demanding little in the way of care. We love letting it loose in rockeries, borders, or underneath shrubs, and sitting back as it gradually forms a glorious carpet of spring colour. If vigorous spreading is not your thing (perhaps you garden in a smaller space), try growing muscari in a container instead. Plant 8-10cm deep and leave a couple of centimetres space between each bulb. Cut stems back after flowering to prevent seeds developing.
Muscari 'Bling Bling' is a fabulous new introduction with striking flowers, each edged delicately in white. It makes a spectacular addition to the spring garden, where the dramatic colouring pops against the whites and yellows of other early bulbs such as narcissus and galanthus.
