Prepared Hyacinth Blue Star

For indoor cultivation of prepared or top sized hyacinth bulbs you should plant in fibre, and keep in a cool dark cupboard for 6-8 weeks. Water when required to ensure that the fibre is not allowed to dry out. The cooler they are stored, the longer the bulbs will last. They can be taken into the room and placed in daylight only when the roots have been well established and buds appear.

Always wear gloves when handling hyacinth bulbs as they can sometimes aggravate skin allergies and keep away from pets as all parts of the hyacinth can cause stomach upset if eaten.

Prepared Hyacinth can be in flower as early as Christmas. These Hyacinth are specially treated in a way that makes them very suitable for early forcing. They should be planted or boxed directly upon arrival.
