Hyacinthus orientalis 'Blue Star' | Blue Star Dutch Hyacinth

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Hyacinthus orientalis ‘Blue Star’ produces dense, upright flower spikes filled with star-shaped florets in clear medium blue tones. Blooming in mid spring, the flowers open gradually from the base upward, releasing a rich, sweet fragrance. Glossy, strap-shaped green leaves form a compact base that supports the sturdy bloom stem.

Developed through long cultivation of eastern Mediterranean species, this variety has been grown in gardens for centuries. It suits borders, containers, and mass plantings, where fragrance and color define the season. The flower spikes also perform well for indoor forcing and cut arrangements during late winter displays and seasonal gifting.
