Description
Hyacinth Double Blue boasts extravagant, fully double flowers in a deep, velvety blue that intensifies the drama of early spring. Unlike standard single hyacinths, these fuller blooms offer extra texture and presence, making them a top pick for courtyard containers, window boxes, and structured spring borders. The sweet, lingering fragrance enhances its value in public sensory plantings or along walkways and entrances.
This cultivar performs well in formal bedding schemes, especially when underplanted with low-growing species like Chionodoxa forbesii or Crocus tommasinianus. It’s a reliable addition for urban gardens, cemetery borders, or low-maintenance municipal schemes.
As with most hyacinths, it is lightly pollinator-friendly, occasionally visited by hoverflies or early bees on sunny days. Plant in well-drained, humus-rich soil in sun or light shade.
