Hyacinth pods

May 19, 2005 3 Replies

Hello-



I have a small group of hyacinths that have boomed and withered. On the stalks were a number of 1-2 cm diameter pods which I pulled off and put aside. They are now each beginning to sprout a thin shoot. My question--can I plant these pods and produce new hyacinth plants? If so, can someone please supply instructions on how best to plant the pods?



Thanks,



Keith Bernstein


Hi Keith,

Just put them in the soil and in about 5 years you should see flowers. This site is for tulips, but the process is the same.
