Muscari aucheri Blue Magic
Circa 1871, this scented Turkish native yields slightly conical racemes of densely packed, vivid sky-blue florets. Inspect it closely: the top hat of its fertile florets is sky-blue with sterile, bead-shaped, darker sky-blue florets in the middle and slightly open, deep sky-blue florets with white eyes at the base above ample foliage clumps. It has a pale sweet fragrance. Bulb size: 8 cm/up. Full to partial sunlight. Bloom time in horticultural zone 5: April/May. Plant 5" deep and 3" to 4" apart. HZ: 4-8. Height: 6" to 8".

Muscari
Commonly known as Blue Grape Hyacinths for their form and sweet, grapey fragrance, deer- and rodent-resistant Muscari naturalize well with a succession of composite flowering stems. They are wonderful planted in thick borders along garden beds, in front of, or under, Narcissi and in rivers meandering through dappled woodlands. The name Muscari derives from the work musk, due to its slight fragrance. Deer- and rodent-resistant Muscari naturalize readily in well-draining soil and in full to partial sunlight. They make good cut flowers too. You’ll need about nine bulbs per square foot. Muscari also force well. It is common for Muscari to grow foliage in the fall: just ignore it and do not mulch until the ground surface freezes. Top size bulbs. Height: 4" to 12" depending on the variety. Bloom time: variable, April through May depending on the variety. Plant 5" deep and 3" to 4" apart. Horticultural zones 4-8.
