Description

Masses of muscari form the perfect foil for spring bulbs, but Muscari 'Golden Fragrance' is like no other! The blooms open the dusky purple you’d expect, but then they take on a greenish-lilac hue before deepening to gold. The overall effect is striking whether viewed up close or from a distance. But the biggest reason why you should consider planting a sea of Muscari 'Golden Fragrance' is its scent!

This beguiling spring plant won’t need special care to reward you with multiple blooming seasons. Appreciate it on its own or use it as a massed canvas against which to display tulips or hyacinths.
