Dutch Hyacinth, Common Hyacinth, Hyacinthus orientalis, Spring Bulbs, Spring Flowers
Symbols of peace, commitment, and beauty, hyacinths are wonderfully fragrant, spring-flower bulbs boasting impressive flower clusters in the most striking shades. They come in a variety of colors such as pink, red, blue, purple, salmon, yellow, black, and white. Hyacinths bloom once in early to mid-spring for about 2 weeks. But if you do not want to wait until spring to enjoy the beauty and heavenly fragrance of their blossoms – just force some bulbs indoors. Forcing hyacinths means tricking their bulbs to bloom earlier by simulating the conditions of winter and spring. Hyacinth bulbs can be forced in either soil or water.
Handling hyacinth bulbs can also cause mild skin irritation. Protective gloves are recommended.
