The Hyacinth 'Pink Pearl' (prepared) bulbs produce dense clusters of deep rose pink coloured flowers which are slightly paler to the end of the petal. The flowers are bell shaped and are held on strong stems. This is one of the most popular pink Hyacinths and are 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 Pink Pearl 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.
Some Hyacinth bulbs can cause skin irritations so it is recommended that gloves are worn when handling.
