Care For Hyacinth Bulbs When They Have Been Kept Cold For A Few Weeks?

Question

How do I care for a couple of Hyacinth Bulbs that I bought in Australia to grow inside. They have been kept cold for several weeks and now they need to be handled somehow until they blossom. What should I do, eg. do they need to be kept cool for more weeks or do I put them somewhere where lighter?

Answer 1

They need to chill for 13 weeks. You can do this in the refrigerator. Here is more:
