Hyacinth

>

The hyacinth was so popular in the 18th century that more than 2,000 cultivars of H. orientalis were developed, producing plants with large, fragrant flower spikes in shades of red, blue, white, pink and yellow. All hyacinths found in the modern garden are a result of this process.

We are now making up many hyacinth bowls and arrangements for Chrismas presents. Both Specially-treated, winter-flowering bulbs and outdoor ones in pots. After flowering, the forced bulbs can be planted outdoors in a sheltered spot.
