Product Description
This white form of Scilla siberica (Siberian squill) looks best when planted in drifts, lighting up a shady woodland corner beneath a tree perhaps. These brilliant white flowers are very easy to grow and are squirrel proof. Wiry stems are topped with up to five nodding, bell-shaped flowers in March and April. Accompanied by slender, strap-shaped, glossy, mid-green leaves, Siberian squill are perfect for naturalising. To achieve a natural looking display, throw handfuls of bulbs over the ground, planting them where they fall. Height 10cm. 6/7cm bulbs supplied.

Growing at a glance…
Plant Scilla bulbs 10cm deep in fertile, humus rich soil. It is important that the soil is well-drained and that bulbs are planted in full sun or partial shade. Water freely once the growth begins to appear and can be left to naturalise over several years. A great long term investment as they will multiply very quickly, producing a fuller display year after year.
