Hyacinthus orientalis 'Apricot Passion' | Apricot Passion Dutch Hyacinth

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Hyacinthus orientalis ‘Apricot Passion’ produces dense flower spikes filled with softly rounded florets in warm apricot-pink tones touched with hints of peach and blush. Blooming in mid spring, the blossoms open gradually from the base upward, releasing a rich, sweet fragrance that carries through the garden. Glossy, strap-shaped green leaves form a compact base that frames the colorful bloom.

Developed through centuries of bulb selection originating in the eastern Mediterranean region, this cultivar is well suited to borders, containers, and seasonal displays. It performs especially well in mass plantings, where color and fragrance create strong spring presence, and is equally valued for indoor forcing and cut-flower arrangements.
