Scilla litardierei, the amethyst meadow squill or Dalmatian scilla, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae.
A bulbous perennial, it is grown for its blue grape-hyacinth like flowers, blooming in late spring, much later than the more popular Siberian squill and later than Muscari which it resembles.
Originating in the western Balkans (hence Dalmatian scilla), it was introduced to western Europe (England) in 1827.
It has become much more easily available since 2004.

In its original habitat in Slovenia it is considered an endangered species, flowering in May–June.
