Hyacinthus Orientalis
Hyacinthus orientalis
Hyacinth bulbs are poisonous; they contain oxalic acid. Handling hyacinth bulbs can cause mild skin irritation. Protective gloves are recommended.
Do hyacinths come back every year?
Hyacinths bloom just once per year (in the spring), but they will happily bloom again in subsequent years if provided with the proper care. They are a perennial plant. Bulbs are prone to gray mold and bulb rot when kept too wet.
Are hyacinths indoor or outdoor plants?
Hyacinths make wonderful indoor plants in the dark days of winter or at the beginning of spring, and can be planted outside once finished flowering.
What do you do with hyacinth bulbs after they bloom?
After your hyacinths have bloomed, remove the faded flower spikes and allow the foliage to die back. Dig up the bulbs, discard any damaged or diseased ones, and then dry them and store in paper sacks before replanting in the fall.
