Scilla siberica
Siberian squill belongs to the lily family. It is native to Russia but not Siberia. It easily naturalizes and has been cultivated since the 1700s.
Siberian squill is a hardy perennial and grows best in partial sunlight. It can be found throughout the gardens in early spring.
How many million Aprils came Before I ever knew How white a cherry bough could be, A bed of squills, how blue. Poem by Sara Teasdale
