They are the first to flower in Springtime with their blue upright Grape like cluster flowers.
This listing is for an icecream pottle ( as seen in the last pic) full of various size bulbs. Lots of them. Too many to count. There is some Bluebells in amongst them too with this lot.
They will multiply year after year for you.
They do well in pots or in the ground. At this time of the year the leaves and flowers have died down so are ready to lift and plant for next season.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni
