Hyacinth ‘Pink Pearl’ (5 bulbs)

Hyacinthus orientalis ‘Pink Pearl’ is an upright bedding bulb that will bear a raceme of bright pink flowers with an intense fragrance.

Growing to a height of around 25cm/10″, these ‘Pink Pearl’ bulbs will flower early in the spring for a bright and bold display that will grow over time as they naturalise.

These bulbs are perfect for planting in containers or pots such as window boxes. They can also be used at the front of an early spring flowering bed or border. They particularly excel when planted in clusters among other strongly coloured hyacinths such as ‘Carnegie’, ‘Peter Stuyvesant’ or ‘Delft Blue’. Hyacinth will also make long lasting cut flowers that can fill an entire room with their sweet fragrance.

Hyacinth tend to prefer a moist but well drained, acidic, alkaline or neutral soil, in a position of full sun or partial shade. The bulbs should be planted 15cm/6″ deep and 15cm/6″ apart.
