Pseudomuscari
''Pseudomuscari'' is a genus of bulbous perennials in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Scilloideae. They were formerly included in the genus ''Muscari'' (as the Pseudomuscari group, section or subgenus). Species of ''Pseudomuscari'' have flowers in shades of pale or bright blue, and are small plants with dense flower spikes or racemes. A feature which distinguishes them from ''Muscari'' is the bell-shaped flower which is not constricted at the mouth. One species, '' P. azureum'', is popularly grown in gardens as an ornamental Spring-flowering plant., p. 125 (as the Pseudomuscari group) Systematics The genus was formerly included in ''Muscari ''Muscari'' is a genus (biology), genus of perennial bulbous plants native to Eurasia that produce spikes of dense, most commonly blue, urn-shaped flowers resembling bunches of grapes in the spring.

Muscari
''Muscari'' is a genus (biology), genus of perennial bulbous plants native to Eurasia that produce spikes of dense, most commonly blue, urn-shaped flowers resembling bunches of grapes in the spring. The common name for the genus is grape hyacinth (a name which is also used for the related genera ''Leopoldia'' and ''Pseudomuscari'', which were formerly included in ''Muscari''), but they should not be confused with Hyacinth (plant), hyacinths. A number of species of ''Muscari'' are used as Ornamental plant, ornamental garden plants. Description The genus ''Muscari'' originated in the Old World, including the Mediterranean basin, central and Southern Europe, Northern Africa, Western, Central and Southwest Asia. It has become naturalized elsewhere, including Northern Europe and the United States. Brian Mathew says that many species of grape hyacinths, including not only ''Muscari'' but also the related ''Leopoldia'' and ''Pseudomuscari'', are difficult to distinguish., pp. 124–13 ...

The garden plants include asparagus, yucca, bluebell, lily of the valley, and hosta, and the houseplants include snake plant, corn cane, spider plant, and plumosus fern. The Asparagaceae is a morphologically heterogenous family with the included species varying widely in their appearance and growth form. It has a cosmopolitan distribution, with genera and species contained in the family native to all continents except Antarctica. Taxonomy Early taxonomy The plant family Asparagaceae was first named, described, and published in Genera Plantarum in 1789 by the French botanist Antoine Laurent de Jussieu, who is particularly noted for his work in developing the concept of pl ...
