Apricot Passion
CAM59
Sometimes more is more. Especially with Hyacinths
There is a strong case for you not being sensible with hyacinths. Spread ten bulbs around the garden and you get ten hyacinths. Plant all ten together and you get something else entirely. A great concentration of thick flower spikes. A cloud of scent. Two colours jostling for attention; the warm apricot-pink tones of Hyacinth Apricot Passion against the deep wine-purple of Hyacinth Woodstock. Ten bulbs behaving like fifty…which is much more fun.
We at de Jager have paired five Hyacinth Apricot Passion with five Hyacinth Woodstock, all large 16/17cm bulbs, to give you the most rewarding display. More colour. More perfume. More impact. More reason to stop for a moment when you walk past.
Apricot Passion
Soft apricot-pink flower spikes rise on sturdy green stems, bringing rich fragrance and delicate spring colour to the garden. Hyacinth ‘Apricot Passion’ is loved for its elegant pastel tones and beautifully uniform blooms, making it ideal for formal beds, borders, and patio containers.
Woodstock
Produces deep purple flower spikes with rich fragrance and dramatic spring colour. The bold tones of Hyacinth ‘Woodstock’ create striking contrast when paired with Apricot Passion, making it an excellent choice for vibrant mixed displays
Apricot Passion and Woodstock
Growing together, the effect is captivating. The soft apricot-pink hyacinth glows beside the deep wine-purple. Each colour makes the other look richer: the pale blooms become softer and warmer, while the purple suddenly looks darker and more sumptuous. From a distance, the contrast catches your eye. Up close, the perfume takes over.
And size matters here. A hyacinth bulb arrives with next spring packed inside. Bigger bulbs carry the reserves needed for the substantial, densely packed flower spikes gardeners, like you, buy hyacinths for in the first place.
You receive:
5 Hyacinth Apricot Passion. 5 Hyacinth Woodstock,
10 large 16/17cm bulbs
The usual price, including postage, is £24.90.
Your price is £14.90, including postage.
Delivery is early October. Each variety is individually bagged and labelled.
Plant all ten together. Close enough for the apricot-pink to shine against the deep purple. Close enough for the perfume to become impossible to ignore. Close enough for ten bulbs to look gloriously excessive.
You could spread these bulbs sensibly around the garden…but nobody has ever opened the door on a spring morning and thought: “I wish I’d planted fewer hyacinths.”
For £14.90 delivered, is there any need to ration your pleasure?

Cameleon
CAM65
Some Alliums were made to mingle.
Give your summer borders movement as well as colour, with 15 Alliums merging violet-pink, white and yellow amongst the plants you already grow.
Their loose clusters of dangling flowers hang from fine stems, turning and moving through the border instead of holding themselves in one solid shape. They are a world away from the great purple globes which have made Alliums so familiar.
You do not need to make room for the effect. You can let them lace through what is already there. Plant amongst perennials. Let them emerge between established favourites. Repeat small groups along a border so the same distinctive flower form appears again - first in pink, then white, then yellow.
We are offering you five of each of three RHS award-winning varieties. One can look accidental. Five of each appearing along a border looks like you meant it.
Allium carinatum ssp. pulchellum x 5 is a graceful clump-forming perennial producing loose clusters of violet-pink star-shaped flowers on slender, arching stems through July and August. The delicate blooms of pulchellum bring movement and light texture to sunny borders, gravel gardens, and naturalistic planting schemes, where they mix beautifully among grasses and late-summer perennials. RHS Recommended: Award of Garden Merit holder.
Allium carinatum ssp. pulchellum ‘Album’ x 5 produces elegant sprays of pure white, star-shaped flowers held on slender stems above narrow grey-green foliage through midsummer. The flowers on ‘Album’ bring lightness and movement to sunny borders, gravel gardens, and naturalistic planting schemes, where the crisp white flowers contrast beautifully against green foliage and ornamental grasses. RHS Recommended: Award of Garden Merit holder.
Allium flavum x 5 Mediterraneum Allium flavum is an unusual and prize-winning cultivar, producing loose umbels of delicate, lemon-yellow bells during the summer months. A wonderfully distinctive variety which is perfect for adding pops of colour and interest to borders and large containers with sparkler-like, zesty blooms. Rare beauty, Allium flavum, has been granted an Award of Garden Merit from the RHS for its charming looks and perennial qualities.
Same family. Similar habit. Three quite different effects.
There is one feature of these bulbs we should mention before yours arrive.
These particular alliums are supplied with part of their dry stems attached. This is deliberate. Allowing the stems to dry down on this type of allium helps their necks seal as they enter dormancy. We leave them just as they should be and as you expect from de Jager, all 15 bulbs are supplied as Top Size.

Coum
CAM60
The Secret isn't Better Flowers. It's Better Timing.
All your flowers are judged by the company around them. A tulip in April has plenty of rivals. A rose in summer has to outcompete others in your border, but a Cyclamen in the depths of winter has the stage to itself. Perhaps this is the reason hardy Cyclamen feel so special. Not because they are larger. Not because they are brighter. Simply because they arrive when vivid flowers have become unexpected.
Some pleasures depend entirely on timing. The first snowdrop. Your first ripe strawberry. The first evening you sit out on the patio. The warming winter sight of pink and white Cyclamen illuminating your barren January garden.
We at de Jager, have paired three award winning Cyclamen coum with three award winning Cyclamen coum Album. Three deep pink. Three pure white.
Cyclamen coum
Dainty blooms flit above the ground like butterfly wings in varying shades of pink. The dark green foliage is laced with silver veining, offering decorative groundcover for shady spots. These charming Cyclamen Coum are an asset to any garden, ideally suited to planting beneath trees and shrubs, naturalising in grass and planting in patio pots and window boxes. The RHS has granted this variety a much-coveted Recommended Award of Garden Merit for its reliability and disease-resistance.
Cyclamen coum Album
Lightly marbled, dark green foliage shows off the pearly blooms to perfection, and provides beautiful, ornamental groundcover. These little gems are a delightful complement to snowdrops and hellebores, ideal for underplanting trees and shrubs and filling container displays. The RHS have bestowed this variety with their prestigious Recommended Award of Garden Merit. ‘Coum Alba’ provides a glimmer of floral joy during the darker months of the year.
Together these Cyclamen create a presence more convincing than either could alone. The white sharpens the pink. The pink warms the white. Six plants become one considered planting.
The usual price, for three Cyclamen coum and three Cyclamen coum Album in 9cm pots including postage, is £50.65.
Your price is £24.50, with free delivery. (Whilst stocks last.)
Each plant arrives in a generous 9cm pot, well-rooted and ready for your garden. Plant beneath trees, beside a path, or where winter draws your eye from the house. By early October your six cyclamens will be on their way to you.
You may never have expected to be looking forward to January… but hardy Cyclamens have been changing gardener’s minds for generations.

Apple Blossom
CAM64
One bulb should not really be capable of this.
Pot a Hippeastrum ‘Apple Blossom’ in October and you will be enjoying its huge pink and white flowers in your home over Christmas. And the bulb we are sending you gives you some idea of what is to come. At 32/34 cm in circumference, it measures more than a ‘foot’ around. Pick it up and you will know you have bought something substantial before a single shoot appears.
Hippeastrum ‘Apple Blossom’ produces huge trumpet-shaped flowers, with white petals brushed and feathered with pink around a fresh green throat. The name comes from its resemblance to the colours of spring blossom. Apple Blossom, however, has no intention of waiting until spring. First comes the growth. Then the stem. Then the buds. Until one day those buds begin to open and you discover what a bulb more than a foot around has been storing up for you.
Pot your ‘Apple Blossom’ bulb soon after arrival, give it warmth and light, and flowering usually follows in around six to eight weeks. Some bulbs can take up to ten weeks, so nature gets the final say on the precise date. Meanwhile, you get something you miss when buying a plant already in flower. The anticipation. There is an appealing imbalance in growing ‘Apple Blossom’. The result looks disproportionate to the effort involved. The stunning large flowers suggest you must have done considerably more than putting one bulb in a pot.
For this offer, we at de Jager have made ‘Apple Blossom’ rather hard to resist.
