Hyacinth ‘Delft Blue’ brings a rich, deep blue to planting schemes, combining classic form with a contemporary look. When these garden bulbs flower in early spring, the vivid colour and compact shape echo the elegance of traditional ceramics, making them a striking feature in both established and modern borders. Each bulb is selected for reliable performance, producing strong, uniform blooms. Suitable for both experienced gardeners and those new to perennial bulbs, ‘Delft Blue’ is valued for its ease of cultivation and enduring visual impact.
Plant ‘Delft Blue’ hyacinth bulbs in autumn, ideally from September to October. This timing allows the bulbs to establish roots before winter, supporting healthy spring growth and flowering.
Set each bulb at a depth of 12 cm. This depth protects the bulbs from frost and encourages robust development throughout the growing season.
Space bulbs 12-15 cm apart. This provides each plant with enough room for healthy growth while ensuring a dense, cohesive display when in flower.
At maturity, ‘Delft Blue’ hyacinths reach 20-25 cm. The plants form neat, upright clusters that work well with low shrubs and perennials, as well as in mixed plantings.
Flowering occurs from April to May. The blooms maintain their colour and fragrance for around two weeks, adding a strong blue accent and a pleasant scent to the garden during this period.
These hyacinths are frost hardy and will overwinter successfully in the ground. For additional protection during periods of severe cold, cover the planting area with a layer of leaves, peat, or branches.
‘Delft Blue’ hyacinths suit borders, edges, rockeries, and containers. When planted in groups, they create a concentrated splash of blue that stands out in spring. These bulbs for gardens also integrate well with low shrubs and perennial companions in mixed schemes.
