You Garden Siberian Squill - Scilla siberica (80 Bulbs) Introducing one of spring's earliest joys, Scilla siberica, also known as Siberian Squill. This hardy little bulb brings extraordinary bursts of electric blue to the garden just as winter's grip begins to loosen. They naturalise effortlessly, carpeting the ground beneath trees, along border edges, or weaving through rockeries like a river of colour. One of the reasons so many home gardeners come back to this bulb year after year is its reliable flowering. Scilla siberica blooms early, often from March, with nodding, bell-shaped flowers that are a real magnet for pollinators. That early nectar source is a big win for bees just waking up after winter. You can grow them in sun or light shade, and they really appreciate well-drained soil, whether in the ground or tucked into containers and window boxes. They're surprisingly tough too. Fully hardy, they'll breeze through the cold and come back stronger each year. Plant them in generous drifts to get that wow effect, while they're also fantastic nestled with crocus, muscari, anemones, or even miniature daffodils. In containers, combine them with early violas or primroses for a cheerful spring show. Low-maintenance, wildlife-friendly, and guaranteed to lift the spirits after a long winter. These little bulbs are a smart and joyful addition to any garden. Supplied as a set of 80 bulbs, size 6/7.
