Notes
'Valerie Finnis' Armenian grape hyacinth (Muscari armeniacum 'Valerie Finnis') 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 average to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Light blue, fragrant flowers open in early to late spring and attract bees. 'Valerie Finnis' bred it.
Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Blue fescue, and Green Spice coral bells.
