I know I am probably jumping the gun, here, but walking around my garden this week I found hyacinth sprouts poking above the ground. I start to get a bid giddy at the prospect of the first hyacinths. The early bloomers for me include the following Hyacinths: Splendid Cornelia, Bismarck, Mirtilos, Madame Sophie, Anna Marie, China Pink , L'Innocence and White Roman (if I still have any?) . Mirtilos sprouts are so big that I can see the bud down inside!
I have also planted some new beds including 5 hyacinths that are new to me: Minos, Skyline, Raphael, Grace Darling and Prince of Love. What new ones are you trying this year?
I am waiting for the first bloom to post a photo. Please share photos of your Hyacinths.
Chris
