I got bulbs of Muscari 'Saffier' from Holland a couple of years ago and they
are the lovely tall clone with unopening flowers that features on the
Muscaripages site. The flowers are mid-blue with a green apex. I think the
picture on that site shows plants that have been drawn a little, as I don't
recall mine being quite so elongated, but here I may be wrong. It is
certainly one of the nicest and most distinct grape hyacinths and has the
advantage of not seeding.
