Hi Sonia Lei!
Welcome to the Forum! Glad to have you aboard and you're going to love it here!
Hyacinths are an early spring blooming flower so they're probably done for this year, but they will come back next year. They like a rich soil with lots of organic matter, but they also want to keep their feet dry, so the soil underneath the bulbs should be a well-draining soil. I hope this helps!

Plant them outside when they finish blooming and do not cut the leaves off. They'll come back next spring!

Thanks guys!!! I'm already loving it. It's especially hard for a newbie like myself to come in without sounding retarded lol
We have Ebony trees and the dried up pods make a great mulch, this I learned from my grandmother.
I use this along with homemade compost (courtesy of my uncle).
Thanks again for your help.

I did as ya'll said and put them in the ground. I had a pot of Hyacinth & grape hyacinth, and when I started pulling out the GH, I noticed that there are atleast 20 new babies... should I just plant the entire cluster of them or try and seperate?
Thanks

I'm new so I don't have an answer for you. But watching this post I am looking forward to adding some hycinthia to my spring bulbs next year. Thankyou for starting this topic.

Search The Garden Helper:
I bought a few Hyacinth (blooming) at the supermarket and I must say they were beautiful when I brought them home. I watered, kept them near a window where they got plenty of sun in the morning but they are starting to die out. The soil I'm using has plant food in it, so I know it's not lack of nutrients... so my question is... is this it? Have they done their job and ready for a nap ? This goes for the grape hyacinth as well.
Thanks.
