Growing guide for Hyacinth Delfts Blauw Bulbs
Planting instructions
Planting Depth in the Ground: Dig a hole in the ground about 4-6 inches deep (10-15 cm). Planting Depth in Containers: If you're planting in containers, use a pot that's at least 6 inches (15 cm) deep and place the bulb about 3-4 inches (7-10 cm) deep.
Growing Requirements
Pests
Keep an eye out for aphids and slugs. You can use insecticidal soap or pick them off by hand. Hyacinths can sometimes get fungal diseases like grey mould. Make sure the soil is well-draining to prevent this. Use neem oil spray to deter pests.
soil
Hyacinths like well-draining soil with good organic matter. Mix some compost into the soil to make it rich and fluffy.
spot
Choose a sunny spot in your garden or on your balcony for containers. Hyacinths love the sun!
temperature
Plant your hyacinth bulbs in the fall when the soil is cool but not frozen. They like cold winters to grow properly.
watering
Water your hyacinths right after planting, and then keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Don't let the soil dry out completely.
how to harvest
When your hyacinth blooms, cut the flowers when they're fully open. Snip the stem near the base, and they'll make a lovely bouquet. Enjoy the sweet scent! Remember, hyacinths are pretty low-maintenance once planted. Just make sure they get enough water and sunlight, and you'll have beautiful blooms in no time!
