Muscari aucheri 'Ocean Magic'
Lovely little spring flowering bulbous perennial. It has glossy green, linear (grass like) leaves that start showing late winter and then in amongst the leaves the flower spikes start to appear. Slowly they rise above the leaves and open up. This Muscari fades from almost white down to a pale, ocean blue colour. Great spring flower for the front of a border, under trees or in containers. If planting in a container, try dressing it with some moss and a few twigs to give it a naturalistc look. It has a lovely fragrance.
