This is my first year growing hyacinths in Richmond. The varieties I chose are supposed to do well in zone 9. I always thought hyacinths were for everybody north of zone 9. But Bert had a wonderful deal and I got some as a test. I combined Blue Ice (a very pale blue/violet) with Atlantic, a med. blue. I was not disappointed, but I do have one regret: I should have gotten more! Oh well, there's always next year and maybe they will perennialize for me.

Chris, didn't you post somewhere that over the years your hyacinths bloom at a declining rate? Did I dream this?
