Hello, The pink Muscari exist again. The Archibalds offer seed from a collection of M.armenaicum that is pink, dubbed "Gul." Pink in Turkish? The one seed that germinated has bloomed for two years now and multiplied like armenaicum should, but not like the typical purple forms. The pink is really outstanding even though the flowers start white. Ruksans writes of at least one other one that he grows. I agree its sad to know that so many are lost forever. Just think how many never get noticed by those who have no desire to really look at things.
