Good morning. I'm feeling more positive today. New moto 'pottering is progress,' no unachievable list of jobs today. Willing but chilling.

I had these this spring and they are strange little things. They don't seem to multiply like mad like some of the other muscari. Just make sure you use poor soil and don't fertilise around them. I found that the foliage looks much better, otherwise it looks like soggy pasta 😁

Thanks @ublaszko soggy pasta definitely sounds like something I want to avoid. I might put them in a pot.

I keep all my muscari in pots and I re-use compost from summer pots. Same with hyacinths. I might try that with alliums this year because allium leaves a real pet peeve for me.
