Planting and Growing Information

Plant Muscari bulbs in fall, approximately 3 inches deep and spaced to achieve 15 bulbs per square foot. They thrive in full sun to partial shade and adapt well to various soil types as long as drainage is good. Foliage emerges early, often in late winter, with blooms appearing in mid-spring. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to ensure strong returns in subsequent years. Divide clumps every 4-5 years to maintain vigor.
