The John Scheepers catalog lists a Muscari mixture including armeniacum, "botryoides album" hort., latifolium, and 'Valerie Finnis'. I don't know if this is the same mixture as Joseph asked about. Probably the sellers just put in M. armeniacum and whatever else is available in quantity, and add a few 'Valerie' (which is more expensive because it doesn't increase so well). The commonly available selections of M. armeniacum are the species itself, the double 'Blue Spike', the greenish 'Saffier', and a white form whose name I forget. There are some bicolored cultivars, ascribed to M. aucheri, that are more expensive and quite pretty, such as 'Mount Hood'. The catalog before me offers "Muscari paradoxum" which it claims is "syn. Bellevalia pycnantha," which is nonsense; the offered plant is clearly nothing like the true Bellevalia pycnantha, but is rather a dark, very aggressively multiplying Muscari species or hybrid. 'Valerie Finnis' is apparently a hybrid. It is definitely not M. neglectum! It arose in the garden of its eponym. Its color and slow increase suggest to me that Muscari pseudomuscari (syn. Pseudomuscari chalusicum) might be involved in its pedigree. That species is very attractive but I have been able to increase it only from seed; it has very large bulbs that rarely if ever multiply.
