Description

Grape hyacinths (Muscari) belong to the same family as true hyacinths (Hyacinthus) and have essentially the same care requirements. 
The Victorians revered hyacinths for their sweet, lingering fragrance, and carefully massed them in low beds, planting in rows of one color each. In general, hyacinths are said symbolize playfulness, sport, and rashness, though meanings are color-dependent.

I enjoyed reading the information that you gave us and it just lets us enjoy the beauty of the flower more. Your dof is so pretty and it lets the boldness of the colors and the precise details stand out even more. Such a beautiful look and a favorite Candace. #1705333
