My favorite spring drifts of blue are muscari and Hyacinth 'Blue Jacket'.  I 
have a muscari planting near a water feature that is planted as if it were a 
stream of water.  Now, my husband shakes his head in disbelief but I know you 
gardeners will understand this.
    I have a new bed that I started last spring. I have used blue plants 
including conifers, grasses, delps, hostas, etc.  Last fall I planted lots of 
'Blue Jacket' & 'Rip Van WInkle' in that area. 'Rip' was one of the daffs 
that was suggested by Brent & Becky to bloom at the same time.  I will be 
anxious to see this in bloom.  I like the shaggy look of 'Rip'.
