Description
When it comes to sweetly scented Hyacinths, you want every colour imaginable. You love them all—as Dutch bulb growers, we understand your predicament! They really are all beautiful. Shades of pink, cool blues and glistening white—we know that asking you to choose only one colour is a tall order. So to make your life easy, we’ve put together a Hyacinth mix including the best classic colours plus a few surprises.
Take pot luck and plant them with abandon, you’ll only know which is which once the flowers begin to open. It’s a bit like getting a surprise package. You’ll be watching the buds excitedly to see just which of the gorgeous colours will appear next!
We always use the best quality hyacinth bulbs for this collection which means that the varieties we choose to create this look may differ from year to year. The hyacinth varieties used in this collection may not be the same as the varieties pictured, and there will be a slight variation in colours.
