    Hyacinth orientalis

    This beautiful orange hyacinth is sure to be an "eye-catcher" in any garden! It's light salmon blooms are highlighted with rose and apricot, making it a wonderful contrast to many other colors in the garden. This hyacinth, like others, is very fragrant and works well for indoor forcing.

    • Hyacinths prefer a sunny planting location
    • Plant hyacinths in well-drained soil; amend the soil with organic matter such as compost, manure or peat moss.
    • The skin of hyacinths can cause a minor allergic skin reaction in some people. We suggest using gloves when handling your hyacinth bulbs.
    • Plant hyacinth bulbs 6-8” deep, for strong root growth dig out the entire planting area 15” deep, back fill with amended soil to 6-8” and plant your hyacinth bulbs, back fill with remaining soil.
    • Space hyacinth bulbs 6-8”.
    • Water the planting area immediately after planting to eliminate air pockets. Hyacinths are very sensitive to rotting, any additional water in fall or winter is not suggested.
    • Apply a thick 2-3” layer of organic mulch to the planting area in mid to late fall.

    I purchased these last fall. Some life difficulties came up and I tossed them into the spare fridge to plant later. Needless to say, I forgot about them. I found them this spring and decided to plant them and see what would happen. To my surprise they grew and bloomed within weeks.

    Pros:
    • pretty
    • strong scent
    Cons:
    • not long lasting
    I purchased these in Jan, put them in the fridge for weeks and then planted ( zone 8b). They bloomed, but are on short stalks and the blooms lasted maybe 5 days before turning brown and fizzling out. We are also very humid and have received a lot of rain, not sure if that contributed. I will replant them and hope to get a better show next year once they've matured.
    Great strong scent, filled my whole patio with fragrance.
