Hyacinth
'Spring Beauty'
Pink blooms epitomize spring, and pink Hyacinth even more so! With Hyacinth 'Spring Beauty' you can celebrate the joys of the season with these lovely warm pink flowers with their delectable sweet Hyacinth scent. This double form has extra impact, really packing in the petals to give you that Hyacinth hit. Perfect for a pretty planting scheme, Hyacinth 'Spring Beauty' would look lovely with other soft spring colours: primrose yellows, cool blues and gentle whites.
For a romantic feel, dot these lovely blooms around the edges of patios and paths, or add them to containers, where they make a gorgeous and long-lasting show, filling the air all around them with perfume. Don’t forget that Hyacinth orientalis 'Spring Beauty' bulbs are also great for forcing indoors, allowing you to enjoy the flowers earlier than you would if planted outside. Give them a bright spot and a free-draining compost mix, and then just wait for the magic to unfold!

Plant profile
Plant calendar
Choose full sun or partial shade. Improve heavy soil with organic matter and horticultural grit. For containers, use peat-free multipurpose compost with good drainage.
Wearing gloves, plant bulbs pointed side upwards, 10–15cm deep and around 10cm apart. Their naturally purplish outer skin is perfectly normal.
Water after planting if the soil is dry. Border-grown hyacinths rarely need further watering during winter, but keep containers lightly moist and never waterlogged.
Remove faded flowers, but allow the foliage to yellow and die back naturally. The bulbs can remain planted, although flowering may become less dense over time.
