Muscari Armeniacum is one of the early spring flowers from the Hyacinthcea family. The green spikes shoot up from the ground and produce clusters of bright blue flowers which look like bells. The pretty flowers have a lovely fragrance and I know they attract bees because I saw some buzzing around the flowers.
I also just learnt that the Keukenhof Garden in Holland has long winding paths planted with these flowers, which is known as the Blue River. Every year, this is one of the most photographed scenes in this park.

Indeed - we have many pictures of the blue river at Keukenhof ...
I absolutely enjoyed seeing the pictures. I would love to visit the place sometime.
Flowers already?! You are so lucky, Shilpa!! This muscari is just too cute and more like grapes than the cultivated grape hyacinth that I grew from bulbs.
Spring has sprung in my neck of the woods. Lots of wildflowers popping up everywhere, Yay!
It is always a joy to come across a wildflower and marvel at the immense beauty in nature! The morning beauty is also beautiful. I came across a red one once...bright red!
Hi Anita,
I, for one, can never get enough of nature. I love hiking and being outdoors, and when it is made even more interesting with wildflowers and birds, it is like icing on the cake. Thanks for stopping by. I love your blog and enjoy reading your well written posts!
