My scilla scilloides is now in flower.  Tiny flrs but quite pretty.

Chris,

Beautiful on its own, but S. scilloides is best left to run wild...it'll start showing up everywhere lending a late season pink blush to a meadow or rock garden scree...

In other words (sorry) let it seed around!

Thanks for the advice Carlo, I'll put it in my scree bed.  Just got it last year so it was still in its pot.
