What should be done with hyacinth bulbs after they have finished flowering indoors?
Once hyacinth bulbs have flowered indoors, you have several options for their care and future use. Here's what you can do with hyacinth bulbs after they have bloomed indoors:
-
Move Them Outdoors: Hyacinth bulbs can be transitioned to an outdoor garden or container once they have flowered indoors. Choose a suitable location in your garden or a large container. Plant them at the same depth as in the indoor container, typically 3-4 inches deep. This allows them to continue their growth cycle and bloom again in the following spring.
-
Allow the Foliage to Wither: After flowering, it's essential to let the foliage of the hyacinth plants naturally wither and turn yellow. This process allows the bulbs to absorb and store energy for the next growing season. Do not cut back or remove the foliage prematurely, as it plays a crucial role in the bulb's health.
-
Water and Maintenance: Continue to water the plants as needed during the post-flowering period. Ensure that the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Once the foliage has withered, you can gradually reduce watering. It's a good practice to mulch the area where they are planted to conserve moisture and provide some insulation.
-
Divide and Replant: Over time, hyacinth bulbs can multiply and become crowded. You can dig up the bulbs, divide them, and replant them with adequate spacing to ensure healthy growth. This division typically takes place every few years.
-
Provide Adequate Sunlight: Hyacinths thrive in full or partial sunlight. Ensure they receive the necessary light to fuel their growth and development.
-
Fertilise Sparingly: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the early spring as the plants emerge from dormancy. Avoid excessive fertilization, as hyacinths do not require heavy feeding.
By following these care guidelines, you can enjoy the continued growth and blossoming of your hyacinth bulbs in your garden for many years. Hyacinths are perennial plants that reward your efforts with fragrant and colourful blooms each spring.
