	Scilla - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Scilla (squill) is a genus of bulbous perennial herbs in the hyacinth family Hyacinthaceae.
		Their flowers are usually blue, but white, pink, and purple types are known; most flower in early spring, but a few are autumn-flowering.
		Scilla peruviana is of interest for its name; it is a native of southwest Europe, not of Peru.

		Scilla bulbs are white and egg-shaped; they can be repotted at any time after the blooming is over, and will bloom in the next season.
		Scillas are easy-growing; they can grow in the full shade and in the full sun, though they prefer partially sunny locations.
		Scillas are pretty frost hardy, but in the northern climate zones a light protection in the winter can be useful.

	Scilla natalensis
		Scilla natalensis is a graceful perennial bulb, and with its tall plumes of blue flowers, the showiest of the South African scillas.
		Scilla natalensis belongs in the family Hyacinthaceae (hyacinth family), formerly part of the Liliaceae (lily family), a family of perennial bulbous herbs consisting of ±46 genera and ±900 species found in Africa, Eurasia and North America but most richly represented in southern Africa and in the Mediterranean region to south west Asia.
		Scilla natalensis can be considered frost hardy to zone 9 (-7 oC / 20 oF) but in severely cold climates it is probably best grown in containers which can be taken indoors during winter, or grown in a glasshouse.

		These words, written by Agostino Scilla in his 1670 book Vain Speculation Undeceived by Sense stood in defiance of the conclusions of the very influential Jesuit Athanasius Kircher, who believed that some fossils were formed as sports of nature.

		Scilla's work came at a time when a few other sharp minds, including those of Stensen, John Ray and Robert Hooke, reached similar conclusions about the organic nature of fossils.
