Description
The "Double Hyacinth Duo Collection" showcases the 'Crystal Palace' and 'Hollyhock' varieties, two horticultural marvels with flowers as sumptuous as they are fragrant. These bulbs produce generous floral spikes from early spring. Plant them in the autumn along borders, along a pathway, or in a planter. Grow them in full sun or partial shade in well-drained, humus-rich soil, even if it becomes dry in summer.
The duo consists of:
x 5 bulbs of Double Hyacinth 'Crystal Palace': its deep blue, almost violet flowers are highly fragrant. This variety blooms in March-April, depending on the climate.
x 5 bulbs of Double Hyacinth 'Hollyhock': this hyacinth stands out with its bright magenta pink flowers and sweet fragrance. It blooms at the same time as the previous one.
Bulbs labelled and packaged separately.
Plant these hyacinths in October-November, at a depth of 10 cm and 15 cm apart. In borders, group them together for a spectacular mass effect. Plant them in a container as well, which you can place on a windowsill, for example. Plan for approximately 25 to 30 bulbs per square metre for dense and colourful flowering.
Pair this double hyacinth duo with botanical tulips in a rock garden. In partial shade, at the edge of a woodland, or at the base of deciduous bushes, mix them with Greek anemones 'Blue Splendour' and plant single daffodils in the background.

Planting and care
Plant your hyacinth bulbs in October or November, 8 to 10 cm deep and 15 to 20 cm apart. In very harsh climates, cover them with leaf litter to protect them from extreme cold. The flowering occurs between late February and April, depending on the climate. Wait for the leaves to turn yellow and wilt before digging up the bulbs, which should be stored in a dry place until they can be replanted in the following autumn. The bulbs can remain in the ground in regions where the summer is dry to very dry. The second-year flowering will generally be less beautiful than the first, but still very suitable for border planting. Pot cultivation is also possible.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
