Cultivars
Dutch cultivars
These cultivars are stopped from producing flowers for the first two years so extra energy can be converted back to the bulb. The larger bulbs then produce a single flower stem with larger flowers that are more closely packed together giving a better display.

These large florist type hyacinths have a large colour range that includes white, cream, pink, salmon, red, mauve, blue and lavender. The flowers appear from mid-winter to mid-spring and a sweetly fragrant. If the bulbs are allowed to flower every year. The flowers will become smaller and less compact.
