Gardener’s Tip
Plant bulbs in autumn in well-drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded position. Hyacinths also perform well in containers, making them perfect for patios or entrances.
For the best display, plant bulbs close together in groups. Wear gloves when handling bulbs, as they can cause skin irritation, and ensure good drainage to prevent rot.
