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 the blood of Hyacinthus bloomed a flower 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.
