Deer and pests leave this beauty alone.
There are not a lot of flowers that actually bloom early in the springtime, but the Scilla (Siberian Squill) does. When in bloom, it is full of beautiful dark blue like bell blooms that drape down over a fresh medium green set of luscious leaves. Siberian Squills can reach an average of 10 to 15 inches in height, and they are generally around 6 inches in width. With each bulb planted, anywhere from 3 to 4 different flowering shoots can grow.
On average, these bulbs will bloom for around three years before having to be replaced, and they only grow more beautiful from year to year. These types of flowers have a high resistance and soil tolerance. Scilla (Siberian Squill) are resistant to things like pests, disease, deer and even the cold. As far as what type of soil is needed for these plants to thrive, they can be planted in normal soil, clay, poor, sandy, and loamy soil. When planting Siberian Squills, they need to be in a shaded area or at least partly shaded.
