Hywel, after flowering and cutting back,do you store the bulb until next Autumn when you may start feeding it? Sorry a long question!

Thank you both :)
They usually shrivel up but sometimes I plant them in the garden. However I never remember where I've planted them, so I don't know if they grow again.

Julia, each and every year some pink and some blue ones pop up in my garden. I have no idea when they were planted ... certainly some years ago!

Lovely shade of Blue,Hywel.I also planted some in the garden, after their first year,as although I do like them,the scent indoors was too strong for me.They flowered for quite a few years,but I didn't see them last winter..7 years wasn't bad though !:o)

Thank you all,
Pitty they didn't come last year Sandra. Will you get more ? The scent isn't so bad outside.

The flower head is so sharply defined, beautiful colour.

Lovely to see Hywel and the perfume is quite strong. I plant my hyacinths out into the garden when they've finished flowering and let them die back themselves.

It's a smashing colour! Bet it's a heady fragrance.

Funnily enough it had very little scent.

That's not what I expected you to say Hywel!
