{"product_id":"hyacinthus-orientalis-aqua","title":"Hyacinthus orientalis 'Aqua'","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe pale blue petals of fragrant \u003cem\u003eHyacinthus orientalis\u003c\/em\u003e 'Aqua’ whiten toward the edges, and each is detailed with a darker central lavender-blue blaze, an enchanting effect that appears to produce a constellation of twilight stars in the garden. Plant clusters of these heavenly, fragrant blossoms amid Daffodils, Muscari, and other spring flowers, and add a few extra to cut for springtime bouquets. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe genus \u003cem\u003eHyacinthus\u003c\/em\u003e, once classified in the Lily family, is now a member of the Asparagus family. \u003cem\u003eHyacinthus\u003c\/em\u003e includes three species of spring-blooming perennial bulbs native to the eastern Mediterranean, the Middle East, and northern Africa, of which \u003cem\u003eHyacinthus orientalis\u003c\/em\u003e is the well-loved Common Garden Hyacinth. Prized for their vibrant colors and intensely fragrant flowers, they have been bred for centuries to increase flower size, abundance, and range of color—while retaining their rich, unmistakable perfume. Their dense spikes of tubular, star-shaped flowers are borne on upright stems and are best planted in informal groups (verus being lined up like soldiers), where they combine well with Pansies, Sweet Alyssum, and Tulips, or can be tucked among emerging perennials in the garden. Hyacinths perform best in full sun and in rich, well-drained soil that remains warm and dry during summer dormancy. They are also well suited to containers for patios, balconies, and entryways, and are excellent for forcing indoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor more information on growing Hyacinth, click Growing Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"White Flower Farm","offers":[{"title":"6 bulbs","offer_id":47980121391257,"sku":"0320236-F","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/9983\/9129\/files\/33489.jpg?v=1782075758","url":"https:\/\/www.whiteflowerfarm.com\/products\/hyacinthus-orientalis-aqua","provider":"White Flower Farm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
