Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a decorative bulbous perennial with a height of 10 to 20 cm. The leaves are linear, narrow, basal, and gray-green in color. The inflorescences are saturated blue or violet-blue in the lower part and have white flowers at the apex, which creates a visual effect of snow caps. The flowers have a light sweet aroma.

The flowering period occurs in April and lasts from three to five weeks. The plant is characterized by winter hardiness corresponding to USDA zones 3–4 and does not require winter covering. The variety is drought tolerant after rooting, adapts to different soil types provided there is drainage, and demonstrates resistance to a number of pests and fungal diseases.

Muscari of this variety is used for the design of foregrounds of flower beds, mixed borders, and rock gardens, and is also suitable for cultivation in containers and pots.
