Full Sun to Part ShadeHyacinth ‘Delft Blue’ is one of the most popular blue hyacinths, loved for its rich colour, dense flower spikes, and strong, sweet fragrance. Introduced in 1944, it has been a reliable favourite in spring gardens for decades and it still earns its place in pots and borders every year.
Hyacinths are the very essence of spring. Their beautifully scented blooms are a welcome sight after winter, and they are easy to grow in containers or planted in groups through the garden for maximum impact.
