Hallo, I have only a few species of Muscari, but this one flowers as first here and I love him very much. Cheers Igor

Flowering here now:
Bellevalia sarmatica and what I have been growing as Muscari steupii, which is apparently a synonym or form of M.armeniacum(?)

Two more I have here, which I am trying to pin names to. I have both as Muscari species nova 'Dark Eyes' and this is the first flowering in several years- though they have bulked up well from remnants near the label they are now with. I would be interested to know if the name is correct.

At first look I thought it is SKY BLUE, but checking my pictures found it correct. Still far from blooming here.

Lovely M.aucheri, Tony.
I think this is a Muscari muscarimi flowering here now. The scent is out of this world compared to the other form I have.

Is this really a Muscari  :o  the more I see of these wonderful bulbs the more I want to explore them and this one has a heady sent too  :P  

Simon you are definitely better of than we are at present - cold, grey and depressing so these little gems you tease with are wonderful, thanks  :)
