Hi John,
There several batches here, some already bloomed out , some in bloom and some are just emerging.
In the past some grew 1/3 taller than others.

Mine are outside, in the ground, but they are not blooming before April ! I've got them under the name Hyacinthoides vicentina which is a synonym of Hyacinthoides mauritanica
-
Grundmann also name it as Hyacinthoides flahaultiana but it seems very confused.
I refer to Speta which is less a "splitter", given the DNA is the same.

Uh oh, Speta less a splitter ? What about Scilla bifolia complex in eastern Europe ? But this is not the subject ;D
Grundmann et al. differenciate H. flahaultiana from H. mauritanica : flahaultiana from southern Morocco, mauritanica from northern Morocco and southern Portugal. They separate flahaultiana on the basis of morphology, DNA, distribution and ecology. But indeed, flahaultiana, after beeing described by Emberger, has been mixed/lumped with mauritanica by Maire. Distinction is not easy as it is not easy to distinguish some Scilla from some Hyacinthoides and H. mauritanica and H. italica have long been synonimized. But distribution is quite different. So, if your plant comes from southern Morocco, this is flahaultiana, if it comes from Portugal or northern Morocco, this is mauritanica. :)

Pretty Yann, I like the blue anthers. Does it always flower this early?
