| White --- Ranunculus Blue-- Hyacinthoides hispanica? |
|
| Well, first of all, THANK YOU for also identifying the white flower. I had it wrong too! I buy Ranunculus in orange every year, but didn't even recognize it in white. Hyacinthoides hispanica - the color seems right, but not really sure about the layout of the flowers. These seem to be a lot fuller on top. But I could be wrong! Here are the Hyacinthoides hispanica if anyone would like to compare. I would like to use the two flowers in the picture for my wedding bouquet and would like to have the name when I go see the florist. (On the chance she doesn't know either!) Thank you for your help! |

| they do look related to hyacinth, try searching google images for purple hyacinth you might come close. That's a pretty bouquet. |
|
| Could be grape hyacinth. |
|
|
| I think it's Hyacinthoides, also. Here's a link to one with a form similar to yours. |

| Thank you all! I will take this info with me when I go talk to the florist. I really like how loose it looks. :) |

| i thought the blue might be squill (scilla) alpine possibly |
|
| It's a bluebell. Many in cultivation are hybrids between Spanish and English bluebells, rather than pure examples of either. They are told apart using specific anatomical features. |

| The top one is bluebell? Look at Pyreneun Squill here- at the UK site showing Bluebell look alikes. It looks like that flower. |
