A must-have for purple enthusiasts, Hyacinth ‘Woodstock’ features vibrant purple, star-shaped blooms with a powerful fragrance. For a striking contrast, pair it with pale yellow or white hyacinths or tulips. Plant ‘Woodstock’ in groups within borders or patio pots, or force it indoors to enjoy its delightful scent during the colder months. Height: 20cm (8″) Spread: 15cm (6″) .
Grow hyacinths in moist, fertile well drained soil in sun or semi shade. Plant hyacinth bulbs approximately 10cm (4″) deep and at a distance of 8cm (3″) apart.
To grow hyacinths for indoor displays, plant them in containers of bulb fibre or potting compost with the tip of the bulb just visible above the soil surface. Position them in a cool garage or other well ventilated, dark position at a maximum temperature of 7°C (44°F) for around 6 weeks. Water bulbs only when necessary in order to keep the compost moist. When the growing shoots reach a height of 3cm (1″), move the containers to a cool bright position indoors.
