Description

Hyacinths (Hyacinthus orientalis) are perennial bulbous plants that bloom in spring with dense, racemose inflorescences in bright colors such as blue, pink, white and yellow. They reach a height of around 20 to 30 cm and exude an intense, pleasant fragrance. Originally from the eastern Mediterranean region, they are now popular ornamental plants in gardens and parks worldwide.

Growing tips

To ensure optimum flowering, hyacinth bulbs should be planted in well-drained soil in the fall to avoid waterlogging. During the growth phase, regular but moderate watering is important and waterlogging should be avoided. After flowering, it is advisable to remove the wilted inflorescences but leave the foliage until it has completely yellowed so that the bulb can store enough nutrients for the next season. In heavy soil, a layer of sand as drainage under the bulbs can help to prevent waterlogging. Hyacinths are also excellent for growing in pots or jars for forcing indoors, although they should be placed in a cool, bright location.
