In stock
- Beautifully scented hyacinths
- Delivered gift wrapped and boxed with a handwritten greeting card
- 6 x budded bulbs ready to flower within a few days.
These cute vintage troughs are freshly planted up with 6 well budded hyacinth bulbs. A brilliant thank you gift to brighten the dark winter days.
Pre-planted hyacinth bulbs like this will flower on a windowsil or doorstep for a couple of weeks, bringing joy and scent with very little effort. After flowering, pop the bulbs out of the way and they can always be replanted in the garden in the spring, ready for a repeat display the following year.
Good to know: We plant our hyacinth planters up in succession at our Sussex nursery, to ensure that whatever date you choose for delivery, they'll be in bud ready to flower within a few days of arrival.
Choose from pink, blue or white bulbs - just pick the colour you would prefer from the drop down menu.
Ps. Blue are always the most fragrant!

Budding hyacinths will flower in a few days if you put them in a good light with plenty of water. They are not too fussy about temperature, but the warmer it is the more water they need, and the faster they grow.
Keep turning the plants so that they grow upright, rather than in the direction of the sunlight. In a very warm room you may find that staking the plants helps keep them growing straight.
Keep the soil moist all the time by watering every day.
When the flowers are over you can plant the bulbs in the garden where they will flower again next year.
As long as you keep the roots moist whilst they are growing hyacinths are extremely reliable. If for any reason your bulbs fail to flower please do let us know immediately.
