Jefferson documented
10 bulbs per bag.
Feathered Hyacinth, which is native to the Mediterranean region, has been in cultivation since 1612. Thomas Jefferson noted it blooming on April 25, 1767 at his boyhood home, Shadwell. Philadelphia nurseryman Bernard McMahon forwarded bulbs to Jefferson in 1812 for planting along the flower borders at Monticello. Today the Tassel Hyacinth (Muscari comosum), the species form, is naturalized throughout the gardens and south orchard at Monticello.
