Hyacinths (Hyacinthus x 'Sweet Dreams Mix') - Description

A very tasteful combination for patio containers on your deck or terrace or at the front of the border. Enjoy their sweet perfume! Sturdy, long-lasting blooms with the sweetness of spring. The most fragrant of the spring-blooming bulbs, Dutch hyacinths sweetly perfume the air in April. The star-shaped florets, densely clustered along the 8-12" flower spikes, make a strong color statement. They are at home in formal beds or in groups of single colors - with early tulips, windflowers or daffodils - at the front of a sunny border. Try them in containers, where you can enjoy their magical scent to the fullest. When cut, spikes can last up to two weeks.
