Product Description
Large swathes of blue Scilla siberica (Siberian squill) are a common sight in the early spring. These brilliant blue flowers are very easy to grow and are squirrel proof. Wiry stems are topped with up to five nodding, bell-shaped, true blue flowers in March and April. Accompanied by slender, strap-shaped, glossy, mid-green leaves, Siberian squill are perfect for naturalising in areas of semi-shade underneath deciduous shrubs. To achieve a natural looking display, throw handfuls of bulbs over the ground, planting them where they fall. How about creating an idyllic early spring scene, with a bold swathe of Scilla siberica in the border dotted with clumps of minature Daffodils? Give it a try! Height 10cm. 6/7cm bulbs supplied.
