Hyacinth Delft Blue (Hyacinthus orientalis Delft Blue) is the most well-known oriental hyacinth in a beautiful sky-blue colour, for those, who prefer a softer blue tone over the saturated blue, like that of a hyacinth Blue Jacket. The star-shaped flowers have petals that slightly curl backwards as they grow very closely to the sturdy stem. Hyacinths make your garden look very beautiful as they start blooming in month April. They can be planted in pots as well. If you plant enough of them in your garden, you can also cut them and put them in a vase with other spring flowers.
