Muscari 'Blue Spike' (grape hyacinth 'Blue Spike)
£7.79
Unit price perDelivery begins from 14 September 2026
Spring flowering bulbs and plants are scheduled to begin delivery from 14 September 2026.
Muscari armeniacum 'Blue Spike' is a particularly refined grape hyacinth, admired for its densely packed, double flower spikes in rich blue, each neatly finished with the lightest white tipping. Lightly scented and quietly dependable, it settles in well as a perennial and looks superb naturalised through grass, beneath deciduous trees, or tucked into spring containers for close-up detail.
Neat, clump-forming and elegantly proportioned, it reaches around 20cm in flower—ideal for the front of borders and for weaving between later-emerging perennials. Plant in autumn and look forward to a poised, jewel-like display from early spring.
- Flowering: March–May
- Height: 20cm
- Bulb size supplied: 8/9
- Position: Front of border, under deciduous trees, naturalised in grass

The bulbs arrived beautifully packaged and you could just tell they were excellent quality. We had the most wonderful display of daffodils this spring on our patio. Simply stunning. Will definitely be ordering again

I ordered the mixed hyacinth collection and the scent in my garden this April was absolutely heavenly. Every single bulb produced a strong, beautiful flower and the colours were stunning together. A fantastic purchase, I'll be back for more next year!
