Muscari armeniacum ‘Siberian Tiger’ (12 bulbs)

Grape Hyacinth ‘Siberian Tiger’ (Muscari Armeniacum) produces small bulbous white flowers, growing in a formation that resembles a bunch of grapes, growing on light green, thick stems that shoot straight upwards. The name muscari is derived from the word ‘musk’, signifying the slight fragrance given off by these flowers.

These bulbs are perfect for planting in the front of flowering borders or rockeries, in terracotta pots on a table top or sunny patio or tightly packed into a vase. Alternatively, they can be planted under a tree or along a pathway where they will comfortably naturalise year on year.

Plant these ‘Siberian Tiger’ bulbs around 10cm deep in the soil, and roughly 5-10cm apart from each other to allow room for the flowers to spread. If planting in pots of containers, it is recommended to feed the bulbs with a slow release fertiliser.
