Scilla Siberica Alba

The white Siberian squill (Scilla siberica ‘Alba’) is a spring flowering bulbous plant with multiple little hanging star-shaped flowers in an elegant white colour, unlike its blue brother Scilla siberica. This low growing flower looks very lovely combined with other low-flowering varieties such as botanical tulips and narcissi, fumewort (Corydalis solida) or snake’s head (Fritillaria meleagris). This plant is a native to central Russia and Asia Minor, even though the name suggests that it originates from Siberia. The white Siberian squill is winter-resistant and naturalises very easily. Plant the scilla (in the autumn) in your garden, it’s perimeter, or even in a pot, and you will experience a beautiful, pure white early spring!
