Naturalized in drifts, Jessie Spring Starflower adds waves of blue to your garden design. There are other small blue flowers that do this—it's a popular spring look, especially if you're growing it around classic spring pastels or daffodils for a charming contrast. However, Jessie sets itself apart because its well-known among home gardeners as one of the easiest bulbs you can grow. Bulbs are a cinch to plant, and these are best planted en masse. Once they're in the ground, they'll grow fast with hardly any maintenance. Jessie is a perennial and a strong naturalizer, so it will multiply, making a bigger, more impressive show in the coming years without any work on your part. Jessie Spring Starflower is a carefree way to bring that color to rock gardens, containers, front borders and tricky-to-mow spaces. While it's hard to keep deer and rabbits from eating anything, this Starflower has a light onion-like scent, which deer and rabbit really dislike. Ipheion uniflora 'Jessie'
