Dutch hyacinth 'Delft Blue' is porcelain blue. With their fine form, soft, rich colors and heady fragrance, these familiar spring 'Delft Blue' Dutch hyacinths are a not-to-be-missed joy of spring. If you plant them deeply in any well-drained garden soil enriched with bulb food, these large bulbs will perform exceptionally well for many years to come. -- edited by dtd pbcouchman
