Muscari Night Eyes is a striking Grape Hyacinth variety producing dense spikes of deep violet-blue, almost black, bell-shaped flowers, each delicately edged with a fine white rim. Flowering throughout April, these richly coloured blooms reach approximately 18cm in height and create dramatic displays in borders, rockeries, containers and beneath deciduous trees. Their subtle fragrance and bold colouring make them an outstanding addition to any spring garden.

Easy to grow and reliable, Muscari Night Eyes naturalises well, returning each spring with increasing numbers of flowers. The nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to bees and other early pollinators, making this variety both ornamental and wildlife-friendly. Plant in generous drifts for maximum impact and combine with tulips, daffodils or other spring bulbs for stunning seasonal displays.
