Scilla violacea
Cultu I grow this in a greenhouse with 60% shade all year. I also have
some in the shade of an Oak. It might take full sun with resulting better
color, but be careful not to move it into sun too fast because it will leaf burn
badly. I keep it fairly wet and grow mostly in a peat/coir based mix called
Metro Mix 500. I have planted some in Bonsai mix from Tom Brantley. I have not
been very good about fertilizer, but I am sure it will respond to any good
fertilizer.
This name is from an old reference work on exotic plants by Graf called
Exotica 3. The name may be out of date.
