Blue Muscari

• This carefully curated blend features elegant white Tulips (Tulipa spp.) and vibrant blue Muscari (Muscari armeniacum), both renowned for their reliable spring displays and hardy nature.

Why Choose This Mix?

• Long-Lasting Colour: Both Tulips and Muscari are perennials that return each spring, giving you a reliable burst of colour.
• Diverse Planting Options: Grow in beds, borders, or containers. Both species thrive in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade.
• Cut Flower Potential: White Tulips are prized for floral arrangements, bringing elegance indoors. Muscari adds a pop of blue to bouquets or garden edges.
• Easy Care: These bulbs require minimal maintenance—simply plant between autumn and early winter, water well, and enjoy blooms from March through May.

Growing Guide

• Planting Time: Best planted from September to December before the ground freezes.
• Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, moderately fertile soil with neutral to slightly acidic pH.
• Light Needs: Full sun brings out the strongest blooms; partial shade is also suitable.
• Caring Tips: Water after planting and during dry spells. Deadhead faded flowers but allow foliage to die back naturally to feed next year's growth.

Design Inspiration

• Pair with spring-flowering daffodils or hyacinths for a layered look.
• Muscari works beautifully as an edging plant or beneath taller tulips in containers or borders.
