Overview
Muscari ‘Night Eyes’
A striking twist on a spring favourite, Muscari ‘Night Eyes’ features deep, inky blue flower spikes tipped with a delicate pale edge, creating a beautiful contrast that stands out in borders and containers. Compact and easy to grow, these grape hyacinths are perfect for adding rich colour early in the season.
Flowering in spring, they are ideal for naturalising in lawns, edging pathways, or planting in clusters for a bold display. Exceptionally hardy and low maintenance, they thrive in Irish conditions, returning year after year with increasing impact.

Gardener’s Tip
Plant bulbs in autumn in well-drained soil and a sunny or lightly shaded position. Muscari tolerate most soil types but perform best where drainage is good, especially over winter.
For a natural look, plant in clusters or drifts rather than single bulbs. Allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering to help bulbs store energy for the next season. Once established, they will spread gently, creating a fuller display each year.
