Notes
'Album' grape hyacinth (Muscari botryoides 'Album') is a bulb for borders, containers, rock gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. It forms a clump and bears narrow, dense spikes of pure white, fragrant flowers in early to late spring that bees visit. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Carnaval De Nice tulip, Abiqua Drinking Gourd hosta, and Weigela.
