Grape hyacinths, lilies bloom in spring. They form gradually colonies of plants. When they faded I dig up the lump and spread the onions over a larger area.

Grape hyacinths /Muscari,a genus / Perlehyacint of bulbous plants in the family Hyacinthaceae with approx. 60 species widespread in the Mediterranean and West Asia. All the plant's leaves are deleted from the onion, and blue ball-shaped flower sits in a bunch. Petals are interconnected grown and have only a small opening to the flower's interior, which contains six dust carriers and one pencil.

In Denmark Perlehyacint or Druehyacint / Muscari botryoides and tassel hyacinth /
M. comosum, the commonly cultivated.
