Muscari latifolium 'Grape Ice'
grape hyacinth bulbs
An unusual addition to the range, the flowers of this grape hyacinth form in small spikes, which rise above the clumps of slender green foliage. Opening upwards from the base of the spike, the flowers are initially white, but as they mature, they turn a deep purple - therefore creating a distinctive bicoloured effect.
