Deliciously scented, small bell-shaped flowers crowd the upright stems in mid-to-late spring above the rosettes of strappy foliage. This elegant white hyacinth looks wonderful when planted out in a pot or window box, or when added to a bedding scheme in the border. Make sure you plant them near an entrance or pathway so you can enjoy their fragrance each time you pass. - Garden care: Using gloves plant bulbs 10-15cm (4-6in) deep and 15cm (6in) apart in early or mid-autumn.
