Hyacinthoides hispanica 'Dainty Maid'

Spanish scilla *Hyacinthoides hispanica* 'Dainty Maid' is a graceful and romantic spring flower that brings a touch of soft elegance to the garden. Its bell-shaped flowers in delicate violet-pink tones hang in dense clusters on slender, upright stems, creating a light and airy appearance.

Reaching a height of around 30–40 cm, 'Dainty Maid' blooms from mid- to late spring and thrives in both sun and partial shade. Its glossy, strap-shaped foliage forms a fresh green base that highlights the delicate colours of the flowers.

This variety is ideal for naturalising under deciduous trees, in woodland-style plantings, or in perennial borders, where it can form dense, blooming carpets over time. 'Dainty Maid' is also well-suited for containers and as a cut flower, where its charming bells can bring the essence of spring indoors.
