'Gipsy Princess' Hyacinth has delighted gardeners since the 1800's with lovely butter-yellow blooms and intoxicating fragrance. These bee-friendly blooms emerge mid-spring and are exceptionally long-lasting in the garden. They make excellent container plantings perfect for spring décor. Cut by the handful for unforgettable bouquets. (Hyacinthus orientalis)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
(10-12" tall) You'll love how easy heirloom 'Gipsy
Princess' Hyacinth is to grow. Plant bulbs in full sun or partial shade in a
loamy, well-drained soil and wait for the magic to happen. Plant a cluster in
entryway beds to welcome guests with the stunning fragrance. The sunny yellow
blooms look lovely paired with purple and blue Hyacinths or Grape Hyacinths.
Hyacinths also perform well in rock gardens, which provide good drainage for
these bulbs that don't like their feet wet. Group bulbs close together for a
dramatic display. Plant outdoors in USDA hardiness zones 4 to 8. In other
areas, hyacinths can be forced for a beautiful indoor display. Hyacinth bulbs
resist deer and rabbit browsing. We recommend wearing gloves when handling
hyacinth bulbs, as they can irritate the skin.
