Notes

'Golden Fragrance' grape hyacinth (Muscarimia macrocarpa 'Golden Fragrance') is a bulb for borders, containers, and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Fragrant yellow flowers open in early to late spring, and bees visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.

Pairs well with Rainbow's End hosta, Festiva Maxima peony, and Amur maple.
