Ice-white flowers appear in late winter and early spring, each tipped with a flush of cool blue. Originating from alpine meadows, they look great when planted in drifts in a gravel garden or alpine bed. They're also easy to grow in pots, and will make a really gorgeous tabletop or windowsill arrangement. - Garden care: Plant bulbs 5cm deep and 5 - 10cm apart in the autumn, in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Water moderately while they are actively growing and keep reasonably dry during their dormant period.
