Hyacinth pods
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. http://www.actahort.org/books/23/23_68.htm Newt
