Green Thumb Sunday – Hyacinths Week 3

January 21, 2007 By Carol Michel 6 Comments

I’m starting to see some buds already. On several of these, the flower buds are starting to show, especially in that clear green vase in the center. All the bulbs came from the same bag and so had the same cold treatment.

Without really planning it that way, I will have a succession of bloom, assuming that ‘slow’ bulb in the opague green vase on the lower left grows some more. Sometimes you get a stubborn bulb that doesn’t want to be forced to bloom!

    Happy Birthday Carol. I guess you know which is up and which is down when setting your bulbs! It looks like you’ll have a really nice arrangement.
