Pure white, pleasantly fragrant variety with compact flowers.
A hyacinth in the garden requires little care and thrives in our gardens. Plant them in the fall in sunny or partially shaded areas in nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. They do not tolerate waterlogged conditions. If planted in clay soil, mix the soil with peat or sand. Planting depth 10-12 cm
The name of this bulb comes from Greek mythology. Hyacinthus was a handsome athlete who was adored by Apollo. To Apollo's dismay, Hyacinthus was fatally wounded during a discus throwing competition. From Hyacinthus's blood, a flower bloomed that was later named the hyacinth.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, the hyacinth was not exactly a cheap flower; it was so exclusive that a lot of money had to be paid for a single bulb. The hyacinth was reserved for the wealthiest in the land. Fortunately, we can all now enjoy this cheerful, colorful, and wonderfully fragrant flower! The hyacinth is a lovely harbinger of spring.
