Hyacinth ‘Woodstock’

As bohemian and unique as the festival it takes its name from, Hyacinth ‘Woodstock’ flaunts velvety plum-coloured blooms that are sure to surprise traditionalists who see hyacinths as being white, pink or blue. “Ground Control to Major Tom. Plant your hyacinths, and nothing can go wrong”. Although that’s taking liberties, it’s nothing but the truth. Despite their absolutely stunning appearance, hyacinths are incredibly easy to grow.

Don’t forget that you get a double whammy with both eye-candy and a scent that’s as sweet as your flowers look. Grow them in containers, plant them as an edging to your beds or dot them along garden pathways so that the spring scent follows you throughout your garden.
