Rose Beauty 
Scilla 
The rich dark blue of Scilla bifolia and the bright blue of Scilla sibirica 
in early spring render them invaluable for edgings or for massing in flower 
beds and borders. As they bloom so early in the year, it is advisable to give 
them a sunny location. They are not particular about the soil in which they 
grow. They are ideal for the wild garden but they are not to be despised 
in the border, especially if they are left alone for two or three years with- 
out being disturbed in any way. They are splendid in the rock garden. 
Never plant less than 12 to 18 bulbs in a clump.
