It has an excellent resistance as regards the cultivation both in open ground and in pots. However, it should be borne in mind that for outdoor cultivation after a few years the bulb begins to suffer thus giving scarce blooms. For its beauty it is used to embellish flower beds or gardens. The bulb of the hyacinth looks like a large red or pink onion depending on the color that the flowers will take.

Care: The distance between one bulb and another must be sufficient to allow the growing plant not to suffer from space. When all the hyacinth bulbs are transplanted, they will be moved to a cool, semi-shaded place to improve root and leaf development. This phase typically lasts fifteen days. Once all the small leaves have sprouted and you see the color of the bulb sticking out of the ground by a couple of centimeters, you can move the plant to a warm and above all sunny place. In a short time you will have a magnificent flowering.

Sowing: Hyacinths can be planted around October - November, when it starts to get cold. As far as cultivation is concerned, we can say that this bulb has its best characteristics in the open air.
