Muscari ... and some relatives 2010

Pseudomuscari inconstrictum [Syn. Muscari inconstrictum] starts to bloom in the Jordan Valley, it is quite common in Jordan and much less in Israel.

Lovely pics, Oron. Can't help but look at a landscape like that and wonder what it was like during the last ice age!

A beautiful species Oron.  So far seedlings here are surviving temperatures down to about -5oC under glass.  Thanks again for showing us these fascinating pictures of wild populations & their growing conditions.

The 2009 Muscari thread was excellent & provides an invaluable reference.  Should we continue it or start a new one for 2010?

Thanks Maggi :-*

My M. inconstrictum (from Iraq) still didn't flowered with me, hope this spring. The landscape looks something similar by color to that of Muscari adilii at locus classicus. Here two pictures made in wild and one from my collection - I specially baught white marble chips to make pot-cover (background) similar to that in nature.

Having been advised that this is a Muscari, at the suggestion of Fermi I have taken another photo of this plant and moved it to this thread (I originally enquired if anyone knew which Bellevalia sp it is) I collected seed of this plant on the island of Hydra, Greece in 1984. I have grown it under cover of glass ever since and it always flowers well. Can anyone advise which species it might be?
