Bulbos y tubérculosThe hyacinth is a beloved spring-flowering bulb with dense, cone-shaped flower clusters that release an intoxicatingly sweet fragrance. In March and April, blooms appear in blue, pink, or white above the stiff, glossy foliage. Hyacinths are perfect for borders, pots, and indoor forcing. The bulbs return each year, though the trusses become slightly looser.

Período de floración
Guía de cuidados
Plant bulbs in autumn (October-November) at about 10 cm depth in well-drained soil. Choose a sunny to lightly shaded spot. Water at planting and only during dry spells thereafter. Feed after flowering with a low-nitrogen, high-potassium fertiliser to nourish the bulb for next year.
Consejos de poda
Remove the spent flower but leave the foliage until it has fully yellowed — it feeds the bulb. Do not cut back yellowed leaves until six weeks after flowering. Resist the urge to tidy up early, as this weakens the bulb.
