If planted in heavy clay, it\u0026#39;s a good idea to mix in some sharp sand or peat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe name of this bulb comes from Greek mythology. Hyacinthus was a handsome athlete who was adored by Apollo. To Apollo\u0026#39;s dismay, Hyacinthus was fatally wounded during a discus throwing competition. From Hyacinthus\u0026#39;s blood bloomed a flower that was later named the hyacinth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe hyacinth was not exactly a cheap flower in the 17th and 18th centuries; 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll hyacinths are descended from the Hyacinthus orientalis. Originally, it comes from Turkey to Central Asia, where it grows among rocks at 2000 m altitude. The story goes that Ogier de Busbecq, ambassador of the king in Spain and diplomat in Constantinople, brought the hyacinth to the Low Countries. It was described by Clusius in 1557. Originally, the color was blue and the flower was single. In the 18th century, many new varieties emerged as a result of intensive crossing and selection of the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen to buy hyacinth bulbs? Order them easily online now and plant them this fall for a beautiful colorful garden or terrace in the spring!
