Description
Hyacinth Blue Jacket is a heritage favourite known for its deep cobalt blooms with subtly paler edges and a rich, sweet perfume. Its compact form and vibrant colour contrast beautifully with soft-toned spring bulbs like Narcissus Tête-à-Tête or Chionodoxa forbesii, and it performs reliably in pots, borders, and window boxes.
Ideal for Irish planting schemes where early spring impact is needed, it prefers free-draining, humus-rich soil in a sunny position. While not a primary pollinator bulb, its early flowering time can attract a few opportunistic hoverflies or bees on mild days.
