Scilla
These members of the hyacinth family are not widely known outside a few of the more common varieties and the sight of scilla peruviana, the largest of the genus, in full flower, is still often met with astonishment. The scillas we offer are good doers in sun or a little shade, in well-drained soil. S. peruviana & hyacinthoides do need sufficient moisture in late winter/early spring to flower well.
