Double Hyacinth Royal Navy

of respondents would recommend this to a friend
Impressive color and fragrance makes Double Hyacinth Royal Navy a standout in the early to mid-spring garden. Tubular, bell-shaped flowers of intense blue form a dense, fragrant flower spike that grows 8" tall. Pollinators love it. Hyacinths are versatile, spring-blooming bulbs that can be planted in groups in formal beds, scattered in the border between ground covers and perennials, or grown in small clumps in front of evergreens. They're also charming in window boxes. Deer resistant and easy to grow, hyacinth bulbs perform best when planted in well-drained soil and in full sun to partial shade.

These hyacinths bloomed this Spring. They were a BEAUTIFUL dark blue, as advertised, and the fact that the flowers were double, just added to it. These are not like any other hyacinths that I have or have previously seen. I will definitely buy more.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

They are really beautiful, deep rich color. Low to the ground so they don't flop over like taller hyacinths and they have been in bloom for weeks.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

These came up beautifully, but were a very deep purple colour, not navy blue. Nonetheless, I am very pleased with these plants and definitely recommend them. These bloomed for a very long time (in fact, they are still blooming) and the scent is tremendous.

I was very excited planting these last Fall, but was sorely disappointed when all white hyacinths came up this Spring. Even worse, only half of them came up. As a result, I really couldn't tell you how these performed. Three starts because the ones that did come up were pretty however, not fragrant. Also mid-rating because I don't know what the ones I ordered would actually be like.

Very beautiful, bloomed a little later than other hyacinth

By Carly

From Indiana

I planted these with the blue trio hyacinth bulb bundle also on this Dutchbulbs website. I hoped the trio have more blue colors and this royal navy would add a nice dark indigo color. The blue trio were more indigo, so the royal navy matched almost exactly, but at least it is true to color like the advertised picture. See customer pictures for a better understanding of the color. Bulbs were big and healthy and bloomed nicely

Questions & Answers

Q&A

Showing 6 out of 6 Questions

Q
Are your hyancinth bulbs prechilled? I want them for winter forcing. What do I need to know?
Asked by Angel
Verified Reply - AngelaOur hyacinth bulbs are not pre-chilled. You will want to chill the bulbs for about 12 to 14 weeks in the refrigerator. You don't want to have fruit in the refrigerator at the same time. They produce ethylene gas which can damage the developing flower. Pot them up in a commercial growing mix after the chilling period. The tips should be about an inch below the soil level. Water well to settle the bulbs and then keep the soil slightly moist.Was this answer helpful to you
