Hyacinths


Our hyacinths have bloomed! We had several nights of very cold temperatures a few weeks ago when they were just starting to come up. I have quite a few glass gallon jars so we covered them up the best we could and prayed for their preservation. We must have at least 20 plants. They were at their peak last week when this photo was taken. The irises began to open yesterday. :)

Those look so pretty. I'm hoping to learn a little more about the names of flowers this year.

Yes, I was surprised at what they came out like. I have never seen hyacinths like that...they sort of looked like bluebells. Oh, they smelled SO good. They reminded me of Easter morning at my Great-Grandma's house.
