Puschkinia libanotica 'Alba'

Puschkinia libanotica 'Alba' is the quiet minimalist of the spring bulb world—no stripes, no fuss, just pure, clean elegance. This fully white form of the Lebanon striped squill swaps the usual blue pinstripes for a crisp snow-white bloom, offering a fresh, luminous twist on a woodland classic. Each starry flower is carried in loose, graceful clusters atop slender stems, creating a soft shimmer that’s especially lovely when caught in the morning light. Puschkinia libanotica 'Alba' might not shout for attention, but it whispers charm wherever it’s planted.

Ideal for naturalising beneath trees, dotting through rockeries, or weaving into the front of spring borders, this variety is as easy-going as it is beautiful. It thrives in well-drained soil with a bit of sunshine or light shade, and once settled, it comes back reliably each year with little to no encouragement. Puschkinia libanotica 'Alba' pairs beautifully with crocuses and early narcissus, adding a touch of brightness that lifts the whole display. For a subtle, sophisticated start to the season, Puschkinia scilloides var. libanotica 'Alba' is an effortlessly elegant choice.
