Prepared Christmas Hyacinth White Pearl
H2854
Description
A classic and timeless spring bloom - Hyacinth ‘White Pearl’ is a popular bulb for forcing, bringing heady scent and natural freshness into the home with their ruffled ivory spikes.
These specially prepared bulbs have been treated to flower indoors at Christmastime, if potted up in September and kept in a cool, dark space until early December when they can be moved into their final position to be enjoyed. Plant the bulbs in a container such as a basket or bowl with the top third of the bulb showing above soil level.
Hyacinth ‘White Pearl’ can also be forced in water. Place a prepared bulb in the top of a hyacinth vase, with the base sitting just above, but not touching the water level. Roots will rapidly form, seeking out hydration below before glossy stems elongate and burst into flower.
de Jager's top quality, top size 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.

Sylvestris
T1009
Otherwise known as the ‘woodland’ tulip, ‘Sylvestris’ is the original native tulip – as such, it can be relied upon to flourish with minimal input. Sweetly scented, canary yellow blooms are streaked with faint brushstrokes of dark green. Beginning as refined, pointed buds with elegantly curling tips, the petals open during the day to catch the sun’s rays.
Tolerant of dappled shade and a range of soil conditions, the versatile Tulip Species ‘Sylvestris’ is suitable for containers, rockeries, and borders. This wild variety is exceptional for naturalising amongst lawns, orchards, under shrubs, and around woodland edges, where it will multiply with abandon.

Apricot Passion
H2721
Garden Hyacinth ‘Apricot Passion’ produces soft pale peach blooms filled with rich spring fragrance and gentle seasonal colour. Its warm pastel tones blend beautifully with primroses, low narcissi, and other spring bulbs, making it ideal for borders, containers, and cottage-style planting schemes.
Easy to grow and reliably returning each year, this charming variety brings effortless colour and scent to the early-spring garden.
A deserved holder of the RHS Award of Garden Merit.

Pink Pearl
H2853
Soft-pink buds burst into a cluster of perfumed fuchsia florets around Christmastime, covering the stems of Hyacinth ‘Pink Pearl.’
These specially prepared bulbs are designed to flower indoors during the darkest depths of winter, when colour and scent are most welcome in the home.
Despatched in September, the bulbs should be planted shallowly in bowls, baskets or containers, with the green tip and section of bulb just above soil level and will bloom in 10-12 weeks.
Hyacinth Pink Pearl is also ideal for forcing in water. Place a prepared bulb in the top of a hyacinth vase, with the base sitting above, but not touching water level. Roots will rapidly form, seeking out the water below – a miraculous process which is fascinating to watch.
For Christmas flowers, keep your containers in a cool, dark place until the beginning of December when they can be brought out into the light.
