SCILLA 
This very popular Spring flower is found in almost every garden. Because of the excellent 
beauty of the fragrant flowers they are most popular. As we will find in this family 
two different types, which have a different floweringtime and produce different kind 
of flowers, we would like to divide them into two groups: 
A, Early flowering Scilla’s. 
About the earliest Spring flower, which with its bright color announces the arrival of 
Spring. They should be planted in generous quantities in every garden, as right after 
the Winter, flowers are appreciated so much. They grow very compact, are free flowering 
and about 4 inches tall. Much recommended for naturalizing, planting along edges 
or in your lawn and border.
