MUSCARI ARMENIACUM, grape hyacinth, is a blue flowering spring bulb adapted to many summer-dry climate gardens. This low-growing perennial features clusters of tiny, bell-shaped flowers that resemble miniature grapes. Ideal for border plantings or naturalizing in meadows, MUSCARI ARMENIACUM prefers well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade. Native to Eastern Mediterranean regions, this plant thrives in mediterranean climates and is drought-tolerant once established. MUSCARI ARMENIACUM requires minimal water once established, making it a great choice for water-wise gardens. In addition to its ornamental value, grape hyacinth is often used in flower arrangements and can attract pollinators to the garden.
