Hyacinth Bulbs Care. Water after installation if no precipitation is expected. In good soil these sweet flowers need little care.
All hyacinths need a cooling period of 12 14 weeks to develop an adequate root system otherwise they will not properly grow. If you cannot find pre chilled hyacinth bulbs this step is absolutely vital. This isn t your fault it s just the plant s natural cycle.
Once flowers are finished blooming cut off the flower stalk but leave the foliage.
Hyacinth bulbs do not like to have wet feet so make sure they are not watered too often. Cool your hyacinth bulbs before planting them. Keep the soil moist during the cooling period. If you live in usda hardiness zone 6 or a colder zone hyacinth bulbs will pass a safer winter with some.
