THE FINER DETAILSProduct details
Porcelain-blue, star-shaped flowers crowd the upright flowerspike in spring, filling the surrounding air with their sweet perfume. The bell shaped flowers are tightly packed and held on string stems perfect for cutting. They are equally valuable as outdoor plants, planted in autumn as with other spring-flowering bulbs. Hyacinthus orientalis ‘Delft Blue’ bears single, light blue flowers with a good fragrance. It’s ideal for forcing for use indoors over winter, or planted in the spring border where it combines well with spring-flowering primulas and pulmonarias.
Prepared hyacinths are specifically suited to be grown indoors.
When planted before the end of September, they can flower from mid-December onwards.
They can also be grown in hyacinth "glasses" using only water.
