In stock just now we have loose Hyacinth bulbs in Delft Blue, Yellow City of Haarlem, Janbos, Red and Pink Frosting.
Although these will not bloom for a few months, planting them now (up until mid October) in peat (for indoor use) then storing in a dark place for a few weeks will ensure you give them a head start. You should ensure that they are kept in the dark until green shoots appear, then transfer to a COOL room with lots of light. Transfer to a warm room once flowers begin to appear - perfect for Christmas.
Indoor Hyacinths will make a great gift and look great in glass bowls, vintage dishes and terracotta pots alike!
For planting outside - hold off until mid October (no later than mid Nov) then plant approx 8 inches apart and 2-3 inches deep. These will flower in the Spring.
