Vivid colors
These have a very vivid electric blue color that I am in love with. Unfortunately, the squirrels pulled up a lot of these, but I will be buying more! They are gorgeous, and I hope they'll spread!
So far so good
Verified Buyer
First spring so too soon to tell if they will multiply and spread over time. Bloomed as expected but they are petite flowers so they do not get noticed unless planted in a large cluster.
Beautiful contrast color with daffodils!
Verified Buyer
Naturalizes very well. Beautiful contrast color with daffodils. Protect with chicken wire in the fall. Squirrels and chipmunks love to relocate these as well.
love em'
Verified Buyer
Color is gorgeous and the squill attracts bees at a time there isn't much else for them to browse.
My favorite spring flowers
Verified Buyer
We planted them in the fall in many parts of the flower bed. As it warmed up a few days ago, they appeared and were beautiful. Where we lived on another property for thirty years, there were a few plants and then there were many as the years went by. There was so much blue to accompany the crocuses and daffodils. The garden was magnificent.
Flowers carpet my lawn
When I was about 10 I noticed my next door neighbor had these flowers growing along the far side of her house. They were the most beautiful flowers I'd ever seen. Years later in another city I was walking and saw a house where these covered the whole back yard lawn. I've been buying a few here and there hoping to replicate that yard and gradually they are spreading. I hired a college student to plant the 200 I just bought because at 70 I'm just not going to do the hard work.
