Grape Hyacinth

Grape Hyacinth, Dianthus, Black-Eyed Susan, Phlox
It is relaxing to start one’s day with a garden photo. In front are grape hyacinth, a bulb that one plants in the fall. Directly behind are dianthus plants, perennials that will soon bloom. Toward the back is a promising beginning of a black-eyed susan (Rudbeckia), a perennial native to New Jersey that may show its yellow flowers in August. The background is creeping phlox.

I had some in my garden, and they smelled so good.

Do these grow in Israel as well? Always interesting to find out the "international" plants.
