Grape Hyacinth

In
my own garden, I was fortunate enough to already have some Grape Hyacinths
growing when I moved in.  They were in the middle of the lawn, so I moved
some of them to a rocky area that gets little sun and has rather poor soil. 
They have done extremely well under these circumstances, completely covering the
area within just a few years, with basically no interference from me.  I
also put a few in a container with some other bulbs years ago.  That
container is now completely filled with the Grape Hyacinths.  It is a
beautiful sight when it blooms in the spring, and I get a lot of comments on
that particular container planting.
