White hyacinths are so beautiful!
Dutch Hyacinth
Our Dutch, or common hyacinth of house and garden culture was so popular in the 18th century that over 2,000 cultivars were grown in the Netherlands, its chief commercial producer. This hyacinth has a single dense spike of fragrant flowers in shades of red, blue, white, orange, pink, violet or yellow. (Source Wikipedia)

VerwijderenI have heard that the earth laughs in flowers :) This is truly beautiful! I did not know there were so many colors! Lovely!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenO yes! I love the pink ones. They are so sweet.
VerwijderenI was so pleased that my purple hyacinth grew back this year where I planted it last year! The fragrance is so strong, that I find them a bit too overwhelming for a house bouquet, but the scent is wonderful out in the yard.

Thanks for sharing your lovely garden with me! :D
