Muscari paradoxa
shelagh:
Hi there,
On a recent visit to Harlow Carr in Yorkshire I saw wonderful pots of Muscari paradoxa in their newly revamped Alpine house, trouble is no-one seems to be selling it. If anyone has any spare bulbs I'll be happy to come to some arrangement.

Maggi Young:
Hello, Shelagh,
Have you tried searching for it as Bellevallia paradoxa ? I think it is a synonym.
Anthony Darby:
I got some from Lyn Bezzant at a local meeting as part of the fund raising project from the SRGC Stirling Group. She had bought a variety of bulbs and corms and packaged them into £1 lots, so I suspect it is available commercially. Does it need alpine house treatment?
Maggi Young:
It needs a moist soil in spring and is drought tolerant in summer.......so, given the rain in Dunblane that you complain of, Anthony, perhaps a summer cover is called for!! ;) ::)
berggreen:
In a month or so, I will be able to send you a few seeds of Bellevalia paradoxa. Jus send me your address.
