Siberian Squill
Siberian Squill
This tiny blue flower is one of the earliest spring bloomers. This is Siberian Squill. You will find it low to the ground and you have to look quick, because they don’t bloom long. It’s one of our favorite flowers in our rural Wisconsin the flower bed.

Sprig of Spring Beauty
These very tiny, delicate flowers are known as “Spring Beauty” and “Siberian Squill.” Their formal name is Scilla Siberic. They are some of the very first flowers to appear in the spring.
I often capture a view of these flowers from a small bunch that bloom in our flower bed at home. This year, I was slow on the trigger and missed our home bloom. The blooming only lasts a few days. I was fortunate to find this single plant at a local park.
Scilla Siberic is native to southwestern Russia, the Caucasus, and Turkey. Despite its name, it is not native to Siberia.

A Wet Spring
These little beauties seem drunk on spring; a bit disheveled as they lounge, casually soaking up the moisture of an early morning rain.
