Muscari Pink Sunrise
Charming little muscari, but for the second time, I only had one pink flower while the blues are forming real tapetums in the garden. I'm hesitant to replant them.

Description
The 'Pink Sunrise' Hybrid Muscari displays an exceptional colour for a muscari. The small flowers of this variety cluster together in conical clusters of opaline pink, with the top fading almost to white. Its fragrant flowering is enchanting in spring, especially when planted in large groups, alone or with white or pastel blue varieties. 'Pink Sunrise' multiplies quickly in good, well-drained garden soil.
The 'Pink Sunrise' muscari is a perennial herbaceous plant with a bulb belonging to the family Hyacinthaceae, or Asparagaceae according to classifications. It is a recent creation, derived from the Muscari armeniacum among others. This exceptional variety has received numerous awards.
The foliage of this muscari, gathered in a small basal tuft, develops in autumn. It is composed of upright, dark green, gutter-shaped leaves, quite wide for a muscari. It will dry up and disappear in late spring. The flowering takes place in late April to early May depending on the region. Tufts of leaves emerge from erect stems, each carrying, 15 cm (6in) above the ground, a narrow, conical inflorescence about 6 cm (2in) long. The 20 to 40 tiny urn-shaped flowers are tightly packed together. They bloom in pearly-pink and gradually turn pale pink. Low temperatures intensify their pink colour. At the top of the inflorescence are a few fertile flowers, almost white. The scent of the flowers is deliciously sweet. After pollination by pollinating insects, trigonous fruits form, containing small round black seeds that germinate very easily. Plants grown from seeds will not always be identical to the parent plant.
Muscari is a rather discreet but versatile and very useful plant in a garden or to decorate gardens-less houses. Its great resistance to cold and summer drought makes it suitable for many situations: in undergrowth, at the foot of trees, as a border to emphasize the design of a pathway, in a rockery with heathers for example, or in Japanese-style gardens. It is also a plant that grows very well in pots, on a window or balcony. It is so accommodating that it will forgive forgotten watering, thrive in gardens without gardeners, or weekend gardens. The pink flowers of the 'Pink Sunrise' variety are beautiful next to the two-tone blue clusters of the 'Peppermint' muscari, the white or salmon-coloured trumpets of narcissus, or the pink cups of triumph tulips.

Planting and care
The 'Pink Sunrise' muscari requires good sunlight. Place the bulbs in autumn in a fertile, moist but well-drained soil, preferably not too rich. Provide a depth of 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4in) for your bulbs and space them 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6in) apart. Prune as soon as the foliage starts to turn yellow after flowering. Add fertiliser to your soil in autumn.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
