This plant in the spring assumes a pink colouring; it is small in size and can reach 20 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. The Garden hyacinth has a panel-like development, therefore it tends to widen very much. These plants are bulbeous. Fertilization Garden hyacinth
Let’s use a slow release fertilizer, or manure, when planting, mixing the product to the ground; during the spring let’s mix, every 15-20 days, a specific fertilizer for bulbous plants to our irrigation water, starting from the moment in which the first flowers are withering. Exposure Garden hyacinth

During this time of year we shouldn't worry about minimum temperatures, in fact the The Garden hyacinth can bear temperatures a few degrees below zero. Plant which need at least a few hours a day of solar light.If you desire cleaning the ground from the bulbous plants after flowering, wait for the leaves to dry; later it’s possible to take the bulbs out of the ground and place them somewhere dark, cool and dry, until the best season to plant them again. Watering Garden hyacinth

Let’s avoid watering the The Garden hyacinth excessively, always leaving the soil dry for a few days between one watering and the other, therefore let’s irrigate the substratum deeply every 1-2 weeks with 1-2 glasses of water . We suggest not to exceed with the waterings: if the soil remains damp too long, it can favour the development of rotten in the bulbs. Treatments Garden hyacinth
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.
