"Muscari 'Armeniacum'

Bulbs x 30


Muscari 'Armeniacum' is known for its distinctive, small clusters of flowers. These flowers are typically deep blue to violet-blue in color, resembling tiny grapes, and they are borne on short, sturdy stems. The foliage is grass-like and typically green. The plants are relatively small, with flower spikes that can reach heights of about 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 centimeters). These charming flowers are often used in garden borders, rock gardens, and naturalized areas. They also work well as edging plants or in containers. Muscari 'Armeniacum' is well-suited for creating a carpet of blue when planted in mass.


What am I Buying?

Bulbs are a form of dormant plant which when planted in the correct conditions produce a full plant over time. Plants which naturally survive as bulbs will usually die down into the ground when their season is finished in order to store their energy to return the following year.

Planting Bulbs

Most bulbs should be planted at a depth 2-3 times their own depth. e.g. a 5cm bulb will be planted at 10-15cm deep.

Plant bulbs with their shoot side facing upwards up. If unsure which side, it's best to plant the bulb "laying down".

Cover with soil and lightly water in. Avoid the ground staying overly wet as it may cause the bulbs to rot.

Feed weekly with a high potassium feed, such as tomato feed, once shoots appear.

Stop feeding when the foliage begins to die back. Allow the foliage to die back naturally as this will support growth in future years.


Reduced Plastics

Please note: In order to lessen our environmental impact, all of our plants will be removed from their plastic cell trays or pots before sending. Ensure you are ready to pot your plants when they arrive.
