Color: Dark grape-purple with paler petal edges

Notes: Full to partial sunlight. Plant 6" deep and 6" apart. Height: 8" to 12". A sweet fragrance, and it’s unusual color is not to miss!

A light, airy winter mulch such as straw, oak leaves, or pine boughs is helpful in colder zones to minimize root damage from soil repeatedly freezing and thawing.

Caution: Some people develop an itchy reaction to touching Hyacinth bulbs. If you ever have had such an irritation, or if you don’t know how you will respond to touching Hyacinth bulbs, it is best to wear protective garden gloves. Take care not to touch your face or rub your eyes with your gloved hands. There is nothing to worry about if you do have an itchy reaction, as annoying as it may be. Just wash the affected area with soap and water. Some people have no reaction.

All sales are final. The buyer assumes responsibility for growing flowers from these bulbs. Store in a cool, dry place until planted. I recommend planting bulbs within 7 days of receiving them.
