Hyacinthoides reverchonii

A very compact species that displays its spikes well, with numerous pale blue star-shaped flowers. A recent introduction that will be sure to appeal to gardeners for incorporating into a sunny rockery.
Easy to propagate and particularly recommended for planting in lawns, possibly mixed with Crocus (staggered flowering)
