This Muscari azureum seems to have a two tone effect as the flowers age.
Is this typical?

Fermi, my azureum are more uniform in colour and of a lighter blue shade.

Lovely Valerie Finnis seedlings with an interesting variation!

Hi Poul,
I wonder is this is a hybrid?
Or just a variation?

Fermi, it could be a variation, there are many similar two tone azureum when you search the Web.

I took this pic just over a week ago - the last flowers on Muscari caucasicum - it seems very similar to M. weissii but flowers a bit later and is a bit shorter (though it is in a pot, not in the ground);
Can anyone say if it is definitely different?
