Flora of Cornwall (1999)

The descriptive text, below the map, is from the Flora of Cornwall (1999), which was a Tetrad Atlas (the maps had 2km square dots or Tetrads). The map on this web page depicts the plant's distribution at the 1km square scale and shows the records made pre-2000 which were used in the 1999 Flora and those made since.

Muscari neglectum - Grape-hyacinth



Though Grape-hyacinth has been reported as a casual garden escape along road verges, in hedges and on waste ground, it is likely that a large proportion of these records are referrable to M. armeniacum , which is the more common plant, both cultivated in gardens and as an escape.
