The Hyacinth 'Anne Marie' (prepared) bulbs produce clusters of star shaped flowers which are pink fading to salmon pink with age. This Hyacinth is highly scented making them excellent for cut flowers.
Hyacinths referred to as "prepared" are given this name because they have been readied for early blooming. This process involves cooling the bulbs at below freezing temperatures for approximately a week during the summer.
The Anne Marie Hyacinth will flower in December/January and is suitable for planting in sunny and partially shaded locations and requires well drained soil. Hyacinths can be left in the ground over the winter time.
The Hyacinth 'Anne Marie' has been granted the award for garden merit by the RHS.
Some Hyacinth bulbs can cause skin irritations so it is recommended that gloves are worn when handling.
