Grape hyacinths are perennial small bulbous plants, about 50 species. Native to the Mediterranean. The flowers of most varieties are densely clustered at the top of the leafless calyx (racemes), and each inflorescence contains more than 12-40 flowers, like a bunch of grapes. .

Available in blue, white or pink. Some are musky, so the Latin is Muscari. It blooms in spring and is often cultivated as a garden ornamental.
