Plant of the Week 03/12/2021

Scilla Scilla siberica Zone 2-8

Dainty, cobalt blue blossoms emerge in early spring and can transform your garden into a beautiful ocean of blue flowers! Flowers only reach 4" tall, but the multiple flowers emerging from each plant won't leave you disappointed.

Plant a lot of bulbs to have a meaningful impact on your garden. Plant in full to part sun, 4" deep with 4" spacing between bulbs. Water regularly during blooming season. Once blooms fade, cut the stems down to about 1" but leave the foliage to wither and die back. This allows the plant to store energy for next year's bloom.
