Dear all;
As the hyacinths are looking past their peak, I got to
wondering- dangerous, I know.
Does anyone grow the species instead of these gaudy cultivars?
I have a few brightly colored cvs and the 'multi-scaped'
forms, but their colors really are pretty shocking compared to the
pastels of spring. I assume the few wild species are more subdued,
possibly more difficult to grow(?) and less available.
Appreciate comments, suggests and sources.
Thanks Jim W.
