Scilla bifolia

Scilla bifolia

Compact early bulb with starry violet-blue blooms. Ideal for rockeries, lawns, and woodland-style naturalising.

Description

Scilla bifolia is an early flowering scilla that produces vivid blue flowers close to the ground, making it ideal for low spring carpets in lawns, borders and woodland edge planting. It is especially effective for horticulturists and landscapers who need a compact bulb that naturalises well and reads clearly in early spring light. The flowers appear before many larger bulbs have developed, helping to extend the season and provide forage for early pollinators. In Irish planting schemes it is particularly useful in deciduous shade, orchard settings and smaller drifts where a strong but refined blue effect is required.
