Notes
'Night Eyes' grape hyacinth (Muscari 'Night Eyes') is a bulb for borders, containers, rock gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The deep violet-blue flowers have white rings around the rim of each tiny bell. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Its fragrant blooms last a long time in spring and attract bees and butterflies.
Pairs well with Cheerfulness daffodil, Little Beauty tulip, and Krossa Regal hosta.
