Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Muscari botryoides, also known as grape hyacinth, is a perennial plant that belongs to the genus Muscari. It is often grown as an ornamental plant due to its close-together, round flowers. The lower flowers point downwards while the upper ones are usually paler and point upwards. The flowers are typically blue with white lobes, but other colors are also available. This plant is native to central and south-eastern Europe and can be found in open woodlands and mountain meadows. Its name, botryoides, comes from its resemblance to a cluster of grapes. While it is considered less invasive than other species, it is still listed as invasive in Tennessee.
