Spring's Perfume. If we were taking bets on the most ravishing perfume of the spring garden, we'd back the Hyacinth. The heady fragrance of a handful of Hyacinths in full bloom is enough to sweeten a whole yard; a single potted Hyacinth will fill your house with intimations of the new season. The Formal/Informal Flower. Hyacinths are an especially versatile flower; reliably perennial from the upper South through the upper Midwest, they change their nature as they age. Our premium quality Hyacinth bulbs bear classic, tightly packed heads of blossoms the first spring after planting.
