Let's talk Bulbs-Puschkinia

[Mamu]

Puschkinia-I have grown these little spring flowers for some 25 years now. I started out with a couple of packages I now have hundreds. Like crocus they multiply. I grow them in circles in front of one of my perennial beds. Their china blue color blends well with the folage of the perennials. Great for bordering or edging. There is also a white variation.

Also a great spring filler in rock gardens.

Puschkinia grow to a height of 6 inches. Plant 4 inches deep and 4 inches apart. The like a soil rich in humus, sun or semi-shade.

Okay. You've found a bulb I've never planted. Thought about it though.

I suspect I would like it very much. I've got my handy, dandy fall bulb catalog right here!

Thanks for the idea!
