Grape Hyacinth🌿

A bulbous perennial in the asparagus family, native to the eastern Mediterranean and Western Asia. Produces dense clusters of deep blue-purple bead-like flowers resembling grape clusters. A reliable autumn-planted spring bulb alongside tulip and hyacinth — the English name 'grape hyacinth' captures this look. Tough enough to naturalize if left in place. The genus name derives from the Latin for musk, referring to the faint fragrance.
