Scilla 
There are several distinct types of Scillas, quite unlike each other. 
Scilla sibirica and similar varieties are the popular small blue flowers 
of early spring; Scilla campanulata and nutans are the ‘‘Wood Hya- 
cinths’’ or ‘’English Bluebells’’, somewhat like a slender Hyacinth 
in appearance and blooming in late May. 
All are effective in the spring garden and are a delight to the 
eye. The flowers are either bell-shaped or starry, carried on a spike or 
in a raceme and the different kinds offer a long season of bloom. 
The taller campanulata and nutans varieties are exceptionally fine 
for naturalizing in shade or sun as well as for use in flower borders 
and under shrubs and trees. The dwarfer varieties are delightful for 
the rock garden, for scattering about shrubs or for naturalizing in 
grassy places. 
Early Spring Flowering Varieties 
BIFOLIA. Two-leaved Squill. This attractive variety with starry 
deep gentian blue flowers blooms with the Eranthis and Snowdrops 
in early spring. Plant in sandy loam in sun or light shade. 6-40c,

SIBIRICA. The Siberian Squill. The dazzling bright blue flowers of 
this species are among the most prized of early spring flowers.

by seed and offsets. Can also be naturalized in lawns. Nice with 
small carpeting plants like Alyssum and under shrubs like Forsythia.
