Armeniacum is the original Grape Hyacinth, the one that has been loved by gardeners for well over a century for good reason. Dense, conical spikes of electric cobalt-blue florets, each with a fine white rim, bloom for three to four weeks in mid to late Spring. The slightly sweet, grapey fragrance is a quiet pleasure in the garden, and the flowers look incredible planted in sweeping drifts, tucked along borders, or massed around the base of Tulips and Daffodils. At 6 to 8 inches tall, Armeniacum naturalizes beautifully year after year without taking over, and each bulb can send up multiple flower spikes.

When & How To Plant

To plant Muscari bulbs successfully, aim for fall, typically between late September and early November, once the soil has cooled but before the ground freezes. Choose a location with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Loosen the soil to a depth of 6 to 8 inches and mix in compost if needed to improve soil quality and drainage.

Plant each bulb about 3 to 4 inches deep with the pointed end facing up. Space bulbs 2 to 3 inches apart, or plant them closer together in groups for a fuller, more naturalized display. Water well after planting to help establish roots. A light layer of mulch can be added to help retain moisture and protect the bulbs through winter.

Muscari are excellent for borders, rock gardens, containers and naturalized areas, where they can multiply over time and return year after year. Their clusters of small, bell-shaped flowers emerge in early to mid-spring, creating colorful drifts that pair beautifully with tulips, daffodils and other spring-blooming bulbs.

Customer Testimonials

These bulbs are fabulous! Brilliant colours, sturdy stalks and the plant first season is full and leafy. Sometimes the first sprouting, the plants are a little scrawny, but these bulbs are well-sized with many flower stalks. The orange and yellows are vibrant, and the frilly edges are something I had not seen before.

It at be pre-mature giving this a five star review so early. I have never purchased this before so I have high hopes. I’m going off my last experience purchasing here before, timely shipment, and healthy looking plant.

JennChesapeake

This fall, I purchased a ridiculous amount of bulbs in hopes for an amazing spring presentation. Every year, I only order from Nagel Gladiolus Bulbs and it doesn’t disappoint. I also order for my mother’s yard as her Mother’s Day present. All the bulbs were healthy and nice.

JennChesapeake

These were the first to pop and bloom for me this year. Filled the yard with yellow sunshine and just pure JOY! They lasted just until the last two days of May this year and I honestly can't wait to order more for next year!

I am a huge Nagel Gladiolus Bulbs fan. I’m quite embarrassed by the total transaction dollar amount I’ve spent here. When you find a good supplier, you stick with them. These bulbs are healthy, large, and ready to plant. I can wait to see what spring brings.

JennChesapeake

I ordered these along with some other bearded iris, and every single rhizome was healthy and had tiny green shoots when they arrived. I've never received bulbs or rhizomes from other companies in such great condition. As soon as I planted them they started growing, and are still growing now into winter, even after snow and frost.

Jackie

This was part of the "Waves of Purple Bearded Iris Collection." They arrived as expected and in great condition. I am very much looking forward to seeing them grow and bloom next spring. I also had an issue with my order, but Holland and Bulbs exceeded my expectations with their custom service and commitment to their customers.
