Bulb
USDA hardiness zones:

Each mature bulb will produce 3-4 thin scapes (3-6\ high) with 1-3, drooping, bell-like, deep blue flowers with blue anthers per scape. Flowers appear in early spring shortly after Galanthus (snowdrops). Foliage is 3-4 medium green, strap-like, 6\" long leaves per bulb. This cultivar is very similar in appearance to the species, except perhaps slightly larger, longer blooming and deeper blue in color."

Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Plant bulbs 2-3\ deep in fall. Tough, extremely cold hardy, low-maintenance plants that will naturalize easily by bulb offshoots and self-seeding."
