Pink Pearl Hyacinth Bulbs

Bring early spring cheer to your garden with the sweetly scented Pink Pearl Hyacinth. Known for its soft rose-pink blooms brushed with white, this classic spring bulb is as beautiful as it is easy to grow. Whether planted in garden beds, borders, or patio pots, these bulbs deliver a burst of color and fragrance right when winter finally fades away.

Highlights

• Lovely Spring Flowers: Each bulb produces clusters of star-shaped blooms in delicate pink and white tones.
• Signature Scent: Hyacinths are famous for their fragrance, and Pink Pearl is no exception—its perfume fills the garden.
• Compact & Versatile: Perfect for beds, borders, and containers, making it easy to enjoy even in small spaces.
• Reliable Performer: Hardy in Zones 4–9 and simple to care for, it returns year after year with proper care.

Planting Guide

• When to Plant: Plant bulbs in fall before the ground freezes.
• Light Needs: Full sun is best (6–8 hours daily), but they will tolerate light shade.
• Soil Requirements: Choose well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Mixing in compost improves results.
• Depth & Spacing: Place bulbs 6–8 inches deep and 4–6 inches apart.
• Watering: Water well after planting to help the bulbs settle in.

Ongoing Care

• Watering: During the growing season, keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. A deep soak 1–2 times a week is ideal.
• Mulching: Add a 2–3 inch layer of mulch to keep weeds down and conserve moisture.
• After Bloom: Remove spent flowers but allow the foliage to die back naturally. This process feeds the bulb for next spring’s blooms.

Growing in Containers

Pink Pearl Hyacinths thrive in pots, making them perfect for patios, balconies, and even indoor forcing.

• Container Size: Use a pot at least 12 inches wide with drainage holes.
• Potting Mix: Plant in a loose, well-draining mix.
• Watering: Keep soil moist but never soggy—ensure excess water can drain freely.
• Fuller Displays: Place bulbs close together for a lush spring show.
