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.

Lilac Wonder
T1021
Discovered growing in breath-taking swathes on the mountains of Crete, Species Tulip ‘Lilac Wonder’ is a sensational Species tulip. Misty lavender petals spread out to form a bowl-shaped star, disclosing a clearly demarcated, bold yellow heart. The perky, playful, diminutive blooms dance above ribbons of glossy foliage.
This sun-loving variety is well suited to adorning rock gardens, filling gaps at the front of borders, dotting amongst the lawn, and packing into pots. A superb variety for naturalising, providing carpets of colour year after year, tulipa ‘Lilac Wonder’ has received an RHS Award of Garden Merit for dependability and exceptional garden performance.

Greenland
T1503
Viridiflora Tulip ‘Greenland’, sometimes referred to as ‘Groenland’, features a soft chalice shape and longer stems than many viridiflora tulip varieties making this one of the best for cutting.
The cupped flowers bloom in a pretty colour arrangement of rose-pink petals with a fresh green sweep along each centre.
Viridiflora tulips are known for being long-lasting in the garden, returning in late spring every year with their annual show of blooms.
Both in the vase and in the garden, tulip ‘Greenland’ combines beautifully with pastel pink and lilac shades as well as richer pinks and purples.
