Description
Our Spring Dawn Hyacinth Bulb Collection colors the mid-spring garden in soft pastels. We recommend planting these bulbs in large masses and mixing the colors throughout the planting for a natural appearance. Site close to pathways and patios, where you can enjoy the sweet fragrance of spring. Hyacinth also make excellent container plantings that are perfect for spring décor. In the garden, plant bulbs in full sun or partial shade in a loamy, well-drained soil. Plants require adequate drainage to prevent bulbs from rotting during the dormant season. Hyacinth are hardy in zones 4 through 8. To encourage flowering for years to come, allow foliage to die down naturally after blooms rather than cutting it down early. The foliage provides nutrients for future growth and blooms. We recommend wearing gloves when handling hyacinth bulbs as they can irritate the skin.

6 x 'Sweet invitation' Hyacinth
6 x 'Gipsy Princess' Hyacinth
6 x 'China Pink' Hyacinth
