Dear PBSers, Muscari paradoxa bulbs are just opening their near black florets. I did a google search and there seems to be diagreement about the correct genus. Muscari as above or Bellevalia? Anyone know the current status? I bought these bulbs years ago from a UK source when they were unavailable in the US from any one. Although no longer the case, they do seem to be uncommon. I don’t grow many ‘Muscari’ , but this is definitely the largest growing plant of any and the latest to bloom. I am not a big fan of black flowers. They have almost no garden impact, but blend into the ground color. Any one else grow these and have comments?
