Scilla Hispanica, Rose

There are over 100 species of Scilla, but only about half a dozen are widely available commercially.

Probably the most commonly cultivated are the Scilla hispanica, or Spanish Bluebells: As the name suggests, these flowers are native to Spain (and Portugal) and have beautiful blue, bell-shaped blossoms.
What the name doesn't tell you is that they grow and multiply very easily, even in shade, and in almost every type of soil. What ever the opposity of "finicky" is, that is what Spanish Bluebells are.
They will even grow where grass won't! The wild variety is a violet-blue, but cultivated varietes are available in several different shades of blue, as well as pink and white. Spanish Bluebells are among the tallest of the Scilla.
Try them planted behind some of your shorter, earlier-blooming spring bulbs to extend your spring blooming season, and in the more difficult spots in your garden. Just try them; you won't be sorry.
