This species of bulb is related to the hyacinths, but looks like a refined bluebell, rather smaller and with flowers that are usually along one side of the spike.
Brimeura amethystina is the usual form, with flowers of bright blue (more so than the bluebell).
| Brimeura amethystina 'Alba' is a variant with pure white flowers. |
