Hyacinthus orientalis 'Purple Sensation' | Purple Sensation Dutch Hyacinth

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Hyacinthus orientalis ‘Purple Sensation’ produces dense, upright flower spikes filled with tightly packed florets in deep lavender to violet tones. Blooming in mid spring, the blossoms open gradually from the base upward and release a rich, sweet fragrance that carries well in cool seasonal air. Glossy, strap-shaped green leaves form a compact base that supports the bold flower spike and provides clean structure.

Developed through traditional bulb breeding in the Netherlands from eastern Mediterranean species, this cultivar remains a staple of spring displays. It performs well in borders, containers, and mass plantings, where color and fragrance define the season. The blooms are also well suited for indoor forcing and cut arrangements, extending enjoyment beyond the garden
