Grape Hyacinth Muscari Flower Seeds

Grape Hyacinth (Muscari) are some of the very first bloomers in my spring garden. They have beautiful deep purple flowers and happily start to grow very early in the spring.

- Grape hyacinths get their name from the tightly bundled florets that look like grapes at the tip of each flower.

- There are many different types of hyacinths, but grape hyacinths aren’t related to them.

- They have the grape clusters and they have a sweet-smelling aroma that’s especially prominent at night and during the early morning.

- Each plant grows up to 12” and there are 1-3 stalks per plant. They sprout in early spring and usually result in colors that are blue and white.

***These can be grown in hardiness zones 3-9 and are super easy to grow.***

They’re a good plant for beginners that want to propagate from bulb or seed. If you don’t do anything but the bare minimum, they’ll likely reproduce so quickly you’ll need to prune them to keep them tidy.

These pretty grape-like plants are a stunning addition to any garden with their blue clusters and fragrance.

***These seeds can be planted in the fall for spring growth. Just choose the location and plant your seeds 2" deep and 1" apart. Cover with soil and you should see them sprouting in the early spring. If you choose to start them indoors the seeds need to go through a period of cold (called stratification). To do this, place seeds in the fridge for 3 months. After this period is over, you can remove the seeds from the fridge and plant as normal. This tricks the seeds into thinking they have had a winter.

Each package has approximately 40 seeds.
