Pretty picture: Muscari sp.


Apologies for the brevity. Lots of sale-/trade-related stuff going on here at the moment, and it's left me without a lot of time to write, but I did want to take a moment to officially notice Muscari, who (which?) are (is?) maybe a few days past prime blooming at the moment. As last year, I find them utterly charming.

Isn't there some descriptive connection between Mascari genus and the Muscot wine grape? The flower resemble a bunch of grapes. Matti. Gorgeous btw.

I saw a white Muscari (at least, I'm 99% sure that's what it was) the other day. It kind of faded into the whole scheme of the daffodil-tulip-hyacinth bulb, but the small white flowers as a backdrop really lit up the bed.

Just an observation.
