(7-12" tall) The 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.
