Prepared Christmas Hyacinth Woodstock
H2857
Description
Spikes of velvet-plum, bell-shaped blooms are an intriguing and exquisite introduction to the home at Christmastime. Prepared Hyacinth ‘Woodstock’ is perfect for forcing, bringing spring scent and lush, rich colour into your living spaces during the depths of winter.
These specially prepared bulbs have been treated to flower indoors around Christmas, if potted up in September and kept in a cool, dark space until early December when they can be moved into their final position to be enjoyed. Plant the bulbs in a container such as a basket or bowl with the top third of the bulb showing above soil level. A layer of moss can be used to cover the surface of bare soil to evoke a natural woodland look.
These bulbs can also be forced in water by placing a prepared bulb in the top of a hyacinth vase, with the base sitting just above, but not touching the water level. Roots will rapidly form, seeking out hydration below before buds emerge and burst into flower.
