Prepared Christmas Hyacinth Yellow Stone
H2860
Description
Hyacinth ‘Yellow Stone,’ produces pretty, ruffled spikes of frilled lemon-yellow flowers which bloom in exuberance and emit a rich perfume.
Recipient of a prestigious Award of Garden Merit from the RHS.
These specially prepared bulbs have been treated in order to flower at, or around Christmastime, bringing a touch of spring indoors when the weather is still chilly outside.
Despatched in September, the bulbs should be planted in bowls or containers of bulb compost, with a third of the bulb still visible, and placed in a dark, cold room for 12-14 weeks. Expect flowers in 2-3 weeks once the containers are brought out into a bright, warm room.
These spectacular Hyacinths can also be forced in water by placing each prepared bulb in the top of a hyacinth vase, with the base sitting above, but not touching water level. Roots will rapidly form, sensing the water source below. Store and treat in the same way as potted bubs as above.
de Jager's top quality, top size Hyacinth Yellow Stone bulbs really make a huge difference in terms of flowering.
Care Guide
They like a light, well-drained soil situated in a sunny and sheltered part of the garden. Plant 12 cm deep, 15cm apart.

Ida-Maia
M5291
Unusual and exotic Dichelostemma ‘Ida-Maia’ is a wonderful plant to bring punchy colour and interesting texture to the front of a garden border or large feature container. Loose clusters of tubular crimson flowers with reflexed, lime-green tips and a ruffle of cream, dangle from stems up to 60cm tall.
Known as the ‘Californian Firecracker’, this surprisingly hardy plant thrives in a sunny position and is tolerant of poor soils, making it a brilliant choice for prairie planting and dry, gravel gardens.
Dichelostemma ‘Ida-Maia’ flowers appear during June and July and are highly attractive to bees and pollinators.
