What is Syclle?

As above really.

I have been in touch with a florist and she is suggesting a posy of Syclle and old English Ivy for my wedding.

Anybody any idea what it is, I googled it but nothing came up. Does anybody have any pictures, thanks.

Thanks in advance.

No Sisal is string I know that one, its flowers I'm not good with. Thanks though.

Here is the email

Anne has suggested that you go for posy's of Syclle and old English Ivy. The flowers are pale blue and fragrant. She feels that flowers would not have been brought down from London for a wedding in Hartlepool. These would have been available locally and grown in the area.

Let me explain, We are getting married in Hartlepool onboard a regency era ship, We are keeping the regency theme for the whole wedding, I will be wearing a regency style dress, and wanted my flowers to be in keeping, ie in season (wedding mid May), growing in the uk in the early 1800's. So my brief was a little odd.


Any other suggestions would also be great.

never heard of it, you should ask the florist for a picture of it or its latin name then you may have more chance finding out what it is

I have emailed her, but is taken 3 weeks to get this suggestion so I'm not hopeful of getting an answer in the near future.

I think I've solved it (with some help) She had spelt it wrong its Syclla, not syclle.

Thanks for your help

I think she probably means scilla (blue bells)
